I don't have any pictures this time since the work we have done this past week you couldn't see. We ended up having to move all the roof trusses back to the lake 2 1/2 inches. So Saturday we spent a couple of hours removing nails before we had to leave to go to a wedding. Sunday morning I finished removing nails and Doug and I started moving the trusses. Luckily it was about 40 degrees so it wasn't so bad working. We decided to split the roof into 2 sections and move each section separately. This ended up working better than we had thought. And by 4:00 we had the trusses moved and had half of them nailed back down.
Last night I couldn't make it to the house because Rachel and I had to bring Ava to urgent care. Pneumonia has hit a couple of kids at daycare and Ava started showing some of the symptoms. After spending 2 1/2 hours at the hospital, we found out that she did have a little pneumonia in one of her lungs. We feel better now that we started her on some medicine.
Electric Update: This has been on ongoing confusing process but basically we should have our power installed tomorrow. We had an electrician out to install the meter sockets and both the breaker panels before Christmas hoping that we could get the power before then. Xcel called me the week after Christmas saying that they were at the house ready to install the gas and power but could do the power because they needed all the lumber in the driveway moved. So they installed the gas meter and Doug and I spent the night moving all the lumber for the garage and the sheeting for the roof into the garage.
That's it for now. Hopefully we can get the tails of the trusses trimmed this week and possibly start sheeting the roof this weekend.
