Moving in...gradually

Well, Lulu has started to make herself at home on the round red chair that used to be in the (other) office. She will be my new coworker I think. lol

Here's the update on the basement: We're getting two inspections this week, one for framing and the other for electrical. We were at Home Depot (AGAIN) last night to pick up some fire stop (insulation) and spent the rest of the night getting itchy and sweaty (well, that was Trevor's department) while shoving it in the walls. The fire stop has to be put in --according to Langley building codes-- around the outside tops of the framing, so that in the case of a fire it will provide a bit of a block before the fire spreads to another floor of the house. Essentially, it gives anyone in the house another 10-15 minutes to get out.

And the other big plans in the works: The bedroom that is in the basement has now been upgraded to a media room. Meaning: super duper sound system is going in (insert manly grunt of technology here), and a new tv somewhere down the line as well (purchasing at poorhouse electronics I'm guessing). There's also a PANEL. Yes, a manly PANEL of TECHNOLOGY as well. To the average eye it looks like a box in the wall with a door (almost a glorified locker really), but no, this houses the TECHNOLOGY and all things HIGH TECH. It will hold all of the internet thingies, the phone thingies, the tv thingies and probably other thingies as well. It is the hub of the house now (wait, I thought that was the kitchen). Or it will be.

I can't wait until it's drywall time!!! That's hopefully happening around the 23rd. *Excitement!*
