Aaand I'm back to the once a month blog posts. I ordered my shower water tank and that was about all that I had done on the house until last weekend. I had Friday off from school and no work so I jumped on the opportunity to take a mini road trip to the Helena Home Depot to get the insulation and OSB for my subfloor. I'd like to extend a huge thank you to my dad for letting me borrow his truck for the day and to Crae for coming with me for navigational support and muscle power. Without them I wouldn't have been able to do any of this.
The following day, Saturday, John was in town and helped me anchor the house to the trailer and start on the insulation. Once again, a huge thank you goes out to him as well because without him it probably would have taken me 3x as long to get all these things done.
I'm excited about the insulation because I should have an R-value of 18.8-19.8 in my floors(assuming 1/2" air space and the radiant barrier creates up to an extra R1 on top of everything), which isn't too shabby for a 2x4 subfloor.
This is what it looks like so far and I'll be finishing up the insulation this week so I can start laying the OSB over this coming weekend. Then I'll have to take some more time off because I have finals and am getting my wisdom teeth pulled, so that'll put me out of the game for 1.5 weeks. BUT, once that forced break is over we'll pull the trailer out of the garage and I'll hit the ground running with the wall building and everything else exciting. I can't wait!
