One thing this blog cannot convey is the incredible noise reciprocating saws, drills, hammers, saws and compressors make. The kids had a two hour snow delay this morning and were trying to watch TV but couldn't hear. The guys added a post in the living room to support the beam and a post to support Charlotte's dormer. They tried to inset the living room post as much as possible, but there was thick plaster and mortar where the old chimney connection was that they had to put it outside the drywall.
They framed for a post in the basement to support both, but before they could install it, the plumber had to divert the main water line (and reconnect our sink). While the plumber was here, he also kindly fixed the upstairs bathroom drain which was dripping about a table spoon of water after every shower.
