  1. Look, a photo of me checking out the work on my kitchen today. (yes, yes, the house is still filled with outgassing of petroleum distillates and organic solvents). I will have to do some serious venting after they finish refinishing those cabinets.

    *actually, did go full carbon respirator, which I had handy from my epoxy-of-the-tub.

  2. Eyeballed what the contractors are doing today and the not-wearing-PPE apparently causes massive postnasal drip. (pro tip: if a substance causes massive respiratory symptoms, generally you should be wearing PPE and there's not enough ventilation).

  3. Carpet supposedly ordered (for real) this time... 7-10 day lead time, then install. This is 2.5 weeks since the last time they told me they "ordered carpet". #griping #gripes #contractor #disasterremodeling

  4. Before/after OCD insulating spree with FLIR and expanding foam. First image shows a massive thermal hole (between the fish) against a hot South facing wall. Second image is the same hole filled with expanding foam (cooler than the rest of the wall). Very expensive vs. Fiberglass batts, but this room typically overheats badly in summer. #insulation #weatherization #disasterremodeling #remodeling #flir
