Aches and pains
We got our first winter heating bill the other day. It's almost half of our mortgage payment.
Ouch.
Granted, we haven't had insulation in the downstairs kitchen walls for nearly a month, and a hole in the roof where the chimney used to be. But still. Needless to say, we made a run to Menards this week to get insulation, and then back the next night because we bought the wrong width (luckily we discovered this before moving the 10 packages out of John's parent's van).
This weekend we are installing electrical and insulating like crazy. January is so far a warmer month than December, but there's still 24 days for it to get cold again. Becides, the sooner we insulate, the sooner we can put up sheetrock, tape, mud, sand, prime, paint and install cabinets. Yea, we're going to be busy in January.
On a happy note, the sun is out for the first time in 14 days! Hurray!!
