lets review my management skillz...

so my dad thought he should point out that he makes the 50 minute drive up to landenberg, works for free, brings a vast quantity of tools, AND he brings dunkin donuts coffee for the two of us...he called it pathetic...i called it good management skillz...

so on the 3rd, we decided to finish off the laundry room and workshop area. i guess the old guy who built the place got tired of all the toggle bolts because this section of the basement came down much easier...

here are a few snapshots from the day...


dad also came back sunday morning to pick up some more scrap wood and haul it down to his burn pile...but when he showed he talked me into finishing up the workshop area and getting the rest of the ceiling down...hes a slave driver, but i guess i cant complain about free labor...

after sunday, we had 460lbs to the dump, 4 pickup truck loads to the burn pile, and 2 piles are still outside our house...the amount of material that is coming out of this basement is mind blowing...

now, i just have to clean the moldy/dirty walls and get them ready for paint...mom and dad volunteered to come up saturday and paint (i have training for work all day so i wont even be there)...work on the house is getting done even when i am not there...like i said earlier...good management skillz...
