    Does that mean I should start complaining about living on subfloor for a year now?

    Similar here, partly overworked hubby and partly since the resale value is minimal....

    Closet is almost done, it looks so cozy knowing there's twice the insulation there was before!

    Our first major project, back in '08. 110 ft retaining wall that ended up costing about $5k.

    Nice wall. Must be a lot easier to mow around and up to.

    Well I've got half the ceiling insulated, all that's left is have a buddy come over and double check everything, then poly drywall mud tape paint and carpet and everything else can wait till winter!
