Last week was successful despite not having a builder. Derek managed to get the majority of the floor joists in for the guest area, which is above the garage. This apparently involved a lot of interesting nail gun work and, given Derek's dislike of heights, some precarious positioning on the ladder. This has resulted in quite a few interesting bruises on Derek's legs, where he has braced himself on the ladder. This was particularly funny on the weekend when we had some beautiful weather, and Derek was in shorts :-)
The bolts for the perimeter beams have arrived and so this week will be the start of getting the perimeter beams. Hopefully we get some joy with the builder this week and can stand up some of the frames, then this thing will really start looking like a house.
