More of the same... extended Memorial weekend edition!

Screwed down some more of the subfloor in the kitchen, addition and the laundry room over the past few days. All the subfloor that's accessible is now screwed down. I also cut out one piece of subfloor in the doorway to the 1/2 bath so the wood installers could get into that space.

Installed more blocking under the addition to stiffen up the subfloor in there. Heather cut the pieces while I was in the crawlspace. Our first round of this work on Friday used one 8' 2x4. Saturday, we used another three 2x4s. There are still some spots I would like to block, but we'll have to do that later.

So, on to Sunday. We had to tackle the wallpaper residue so we could paint the walls so the drywaller could get in and install drywall and then tape and mud. They can't mud over wallpaper residue. You can't do anything except wallpaper over wallpaper residue.So, we spent about 6 hours there doing that.

Then, we went home to have some burgers. Yum.

Monday, we spent some time cleaning up the upstairs and adjusting priorities. The contractor told us the wood floor people want to start upstairs rather than lay wood on the first floor. This is to deconflict with the drywall work. So, we had to shift and get everything ready for that work. So, I took out the carpet runner in the hall.

And the one on the stairs.

Then, Heather spent a couple of hours cleaning up the upstairs rooms.

She also took out a couple of nails and a tack strip in the master bath and a couple of small tack strip pieces left over in one of the bedrooms.

Bonus feature for this post! We found this under the addition in the crawlspace.
