More construction

   This post is rather overdue. At the beginning of February, some work was begun in the basement. The work progressed quite rapidly with a whole team on it. First, waterbarrier “paper” was put up on the walls.  Then horizontal studs were screwed on to the NUDURA so that there would be space for running wires.

   For doing the dry walling, we rented a gyprock lift which saved an enormous amount of time and labour. It was amazing how quickly we were able to work with that help!

some pieces were small enough to lift by hand easily There was a lot of screwing to do. the plastering begun

Many hands make light work.

“Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might…” Ecclesiastes 9:10

   The most important kind of construction, however, is not that of working on a house, but that of building in the lives of those around us. “For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.” I Corinthians 3:9
