House Phase III

After last month’s crazy mix-up Sir Luke and I have been visiting with a lot more frequency. We have made a few beer can discoveries which are a little disheartening (two of which were stashed in the media panel in the laundry room, weirdos). But all in all everything is progressing nicely.

Here’s some of what’s happening, BIG changes since the last post.

The left photo is the blue upgraded heat protection we purchased. And we can already tell it’s going to make a world of difference in our electricity bills. It’s unreal the difference in temperatures from the porch to the entryway. Sir Luke is continually shocked, now that we’ve seen our AC units, (we opted to upgrase to bigger ones on his suggestion as a former Houstonite) at the thought that people wouldn’t opt for larger ones in such a hot place. Apparently these big ones will cool our house down fast, thus not having to work as hard and lasting longer.

When the stucco went up (the top picture on the right) so did the drywall. We had an inspection with our superintendent, Shaun. It just gets more and more exciting as time goes on. I can’t wait. The design ideas for the space are spilling out of my noggin in abundance. At first I was totally overwhelmed but now I’m just stoked since these many ideas are coming together finally. HOORAY!
