Insulation and Studs

Insulation
Tools Needed:

Your insulation of choice: 

 
A really sharp knife:
 
A really good stapler: 
 

A ladder: 


A really sexy husband: 


Okay, the last one is optional.
 


It's just an added bonus.
 


A really, really nice added bonus. 

 
Here are a few before/after pics just for fun...

Insulation is exciting and all, but I'm sick of looking at studs.

Studs...
 
Studs...
 
Stud...
 

...you get the point.  The good news is I don't have to look at those studs for much longer.  A really big truck delivered all of the drywall to our doorstep (literally...check out that arm that brought it right to our front door) yesterday:  
And they start installing the drywall TODAY!! 

I'm not sure how long it will take them to complete the job, but we will be hustling to paint the ceilings before the 18th...that is when our electrician will be back to hang all of our light fixtures, ceiling fans, etc.  Which means we will be able to light this place up!!   One step closer :)
