The Cabin Interior Begins

We finally got to start on the inside of the cabin.  We are working from the top to the bottom.  The inside of the cabin has nothing.  We have to insulate it, put up a ceiling, put up some walls, run electricity and put down some flooring.  Then I get to decorate it to make it my ultimate craft room.  It is also going to double as a guest room too!  So with the plans laid out Tim and I got started inside the cabin by cleaning up.  We got rid of any tools, paint, etc that we were not going to need and took back the two extension ladders we were using.  We then measured how much insulation we were going to need.  We only bought one bag of insulation so we cut up the pieces, placed them in the ceiling rafters and stapled them into place.  We then realized that was all we could do (which just happen to coincide with the NFL Football games about to begin) and cleaned up the cabin.  We had lunch then ran into town and bought more insulation and a ceiling fan.  We are going to need a ceiling fan to help light and cool the cabin.  We then spent the rest of the day watching football.  My Bears lost and the Jaguars lost.  The 49ers and the Broncos won so I had a 50/50 day in Football/
Today we are going to finish insulating  the ceiling and hopefully begin to put up the wood ceiling.  We have never done this before so we are hoping it will be not be too difficult.  Check back tomorrow and see how we did!
