Rafters all done!

Been re-furbishing the garage. Spent a couple of weeks digging out the rocks and soil, and setting in the concrete! Ended up leaving it too long before I started troweling...a perennial problem with me. Oh well, so part of the floor is a little bumpy from the float!
The objective is to make a sort of shipping-receiving room for my business. It will turn into a nice south facing room when it is done...and Brenda is looking forward to using it to make brooms. It has been more than a month now, and it is starting to look like it might get finished! Trouble is there are hundreds of little jobs which slow the work down....each a small job, but they must get done. Things like wiring which was stapled onto the surface which must be routed through the walls (new wiring essentially...grin!), pulling nails, installing vapor barrier deep inside wall cavities, and so forth. All these silly little jobs add to the finish date. Looking forward to some insulating tonight! Maybe dry wall tomorrow, and after that install the insulated garage door.
And while I am doing all this, my real business is suffering. Oh well. Got my flue shot today. We'll see how it makes me feel! Usually the flue shot hits me hard.
