Today is March 27, 2018.
Where have you been? You may be asking. To which I respond... don't ask questions like that.
I'm joking...but not really. Life happens and this blog is just a fun entertainment.
So let's begin the updates. It's been 2 years...so this is going to be in multiple blog posts. Please be patient...or don't. (I'm not here to judge what you spend your time on).
2016
When I last updated you in 2016 we were putting a good amount of our focus on the basement. When we purchased the house it was an unfinished basement. We added insulation and mitigated the water intrusions as much as possible. The basement was used for storage for the most part until 2016 when I decided to put my computer desk downstairs to use a summer office. The basement stays very cool and it would have helped with the financial costs of A/C.
The last blog posts shows the pictures of what the partially finished basement looked like...and to be honest it didn't change much. By October though...it became too cold in the basement as the season's changed. We decided to block off the basement from the garage to keep the air flow minimized. So we took the french doors that were in our master bedroom and put them in to the doorway for the garage.
We of course had to close up the hole in the master bedroom
Our master bedroom was also very cold sometimes. We have since insulated the wall in the master and drywalled. The room is much better insulated both in our bedroom and now also in the basement.
