Fiberglass, that is....
Today I finally bought the rest of the insulation for the ceiling in the bedroom. I even got most of it put up, too. Until my staple gun decided to give up the ghost. Think I'll buy an electric one this time. I have blisters from the broken one.
As you can see, I've also taken out the door and frame for the bedroom. You can also see the new door in one of the pictures. Some of you will remember that this is the door I bought at "Plywood King" in Spencer for something like $30 or $40 early this year. After Sian and I discussed it, we decided it would be better to use that one on the bedroom, buy a matching one for the office, and use the 5000 pound oak door I bought off of eBay downstairs in the kitchen.
The last picture for tonight is a picture from last weekend actually. It is a gen-u-ine BRAND NEW 1976 Black and Decker 1/4" electric drill I bought at the festival in Cataract for $8. I didn't post about it because once I got it home, it didn't work. It does now. I took it apart and lightly sanded the armature and the brushes. Works great now.
So, there's my update for today. I hope to get a lot more done tomorrow. Look for an update from me. If you don't see one, feel free to email me and tell me to get off of my lazy ass and get some work done.

A whole lotta insulation.
Tons of insulation.
Lots of insulation.
