time for some more DE-STRUC-TION

we did the floor in our basement years ago, but never the ceiling or the walls, but the time has come. thomas gave it a start with gusto the other day....
he took down all the cement or plaster ceiling and cleaned it up so very nice...
only to make an even bigger mess when he tore down all the wood ceiling! 90 years ago when they built our house they used sand as insulation between floors, and it makes for very messy renovating now! the entire house is covered in a layer of dust, and i feel like i have been dusting for days! but i think the basement is going to look great when it is finally finished.
pappa enjoys being dirty as much as zoe does...

guess i never told eimi that the walls needed to breath 4 a while. and that we needed to insolate the walls from the outside before fixing the inside...
you could have done it that way but its not right.
