Friday Mark and John and Poppa and I got the last of the floor joists in and were ready to sheet the last of the second floor. We cut up the blocking and got it installed. I hope I did it right this time. I cut each one to 14 3/8 inches.
We will be ready to put the sheeting down on Saturday. Toby said that rain was expected at noon tomorrow. She insisted that we put the tarp on. I thought that it would be a waste of time, but I decided that at worst it would be a good barrier to the dew. Poppa brought over the fireplace that we will be installing (Model BDV300) to be used in a temporary place in the house. Uncle Mark did a great job hooking up the vent through the ceiling/roof. After dinner, we worked on hooking up the blower, the ignitor, the gas, etc. The instructions were not very clear. We started at 8:30p and finished up at 11:30p. I turned the fireplace on low so that the room would be toasty in the morning. Petey loved it.
