It was a very productive weekend for both us and the builders. The house is fully covered in Tyvek and all the windows are in. The siding has been stained and will start to go up next week. Meanwhile, we finally managed to complete the two glass block windows and even had time to put three glass block windows in next to the door. The glass blocks seemed like a great idea on paper, but in real life it is a messy, fairly difficult endeavor. Now that we have done it and made almost every mistake possible along the way, I could throw up 50 of them in no time. I have a feeling that the rest of the DIY projects are going to go the same way. Just when we figure out the easiest way to do things the job will be over. Which will work out well in a few years (months perhaps) when we have to redo our less than perfect first attempt. The next mission is building the frame for the bathtub. We should have that done in a little under a decade.

Its great to be able to see what's going on over there with you two. The house looks good so far and it can only get better from here on out.
Did the overnight with your dog and the other one work?
