Drywall Baby!!!

Alright, this is a great phase in the remodel. The framing is all done and the drywall starts going in - you can really see the forms taking shape because they have visual weight to them now. Very cool. Now, keep in mind that this is still a pretty "rough" state the project is in here. When I went up to shoot this pictures they had just finished with the mud so you can see the joints are still very dark and wet. Still - cool to see. Here, check it:

So the photo above is looking back towards the kitchen space from the small living area. You can see the drywalled (is that even a word?) portion of the pantry on the right of the photo here. As I'm sure you can figure out - the garage door and sliding patio doors are a great frame of reference.

And these next couple photo are looking from the kitchen towards the pantry, small living, and dining area. Notice how all the drywall ceiling planes have to come together too. I'll show you a close up picture soon. You can also see that we've taken the popcorn texture off the original ceiling now.


Here's a shot looking back at the kitchen from the dining space:

Now here's a great shot of all the ceilings coming together at the corner of the pantry. Watch this space later on to see how clean it will be. I'd bet money (well, not really) our guys will make it all seamless right here.


Well, I think that about does it for today. Sorry - not a whole lot of things for me to say, and at 4:15 on a Friday I'm not nearly as "witty" so . . . yeah, you all know how that is right? Right. I hope you all have an awesome weekend - and to all the Moms out there - Happy Mother's Day!!!
