If you recall from
Saturday, there was a random hole from an A/C unit. We fixed the unsafe things they had done when the hole was cut. We added another 2x4 to the cut stud, extending about a foot or more in each direction. Dad also ran electric wire from the switch into the attic so that I can have an overhead light and fan in the living room. I added insulation - the house was built before insulation was standard, so it isn't in the walls. When the insulation was added, we added Simpson Strong-tie bracing to make up for the cut diagonal brace.
Then, we started putting up the drywall. A new sheet for the large area and some we pulled off the illegal garage conversion a few weeks ago.
Sometime during all this fun, the guy from the garage door company came to take measurements. That door will be installed Thursday morning. Also, I got a call that my kitchen were in - even though the expected arrival date was Jan 8! Now the back bedroom is full of beautiful cabinets. And the random A/C hole is gone - at least from the inside. =)
