Today Mikem and Jeffm (Jen's dad and brother) visited. They painted the siding (that's the white spread in this photo). They also assembled our new propane grill, we are extra glad for that, grill directions are universally bad.
Jenm bought a laundry sink and faucet today, along with a few other items (including an azalea). She started some priming in senior daughters' 2 floor bedroom.
Billn ran the new range wire and put a final coat of Spackle in the second floor rooms. Also, he started the insulation in the kitchen/dining. This included adding unfaced insulation and rafter-r-mate airflow channels to the roof. The pink foam boards in this picture are the r-r-mates. They ensure air can flow across the bottom of the roof, cooling in summer and giving moisture-removing ventilation in winter. Previously this house had insulation socked tightly in this joint, which is not so good.

Here is a picture of the kneewall of the adult's bedroom, it had 3" insulation now it has 9".
Here is the laundry sink and faucet. This will be our kitchen sink between move-in (end of May) and cabinet arrival (early June).
Here is the washer machine rough-in box with hot and cold supply lines. We may put the drain line in tomorrow.
Tomorrow is the first day of our local farmer's market so we go there for produce and then to the Agway to fill our propane cylinder so we can use our new grill.
Tomorrow we will probably rough in the drains and complete the insulation in the kitchen/dining room. Also we hope to apply more primer in the second floor rooms.
