Well after another week of work we have passed framing, plumbing and electrical inspections and are supposed to begin insulation today.

My wonderful HVAC contractor (Sarcasm) informed me a week before he was to set his outdoor units that I needed to prepare a pad for them to rest on. So I busted my balls last thursday and friday to get that complete (turned out nice, pics tommorrow).

So I was to then enjoy my weekend (NOT) I had to run any and all wires I want hidden before insulation and drywall, So I spent about 8 hours total and still have not completed the master bedroom and office, I should be able to knock them out this evening. I ran s-video cables, Audio cables, speaker wire, and co-ax cable where needed.

Here are some pics:

The Stairs Set in place finally



The Front Door

The basement entry



Me starting the pad thursday night
