I get up every morning at 5:20 and the first thing I do is surf to movabletype.com and read other blogs. Many are extraordinary in content and design but far too many are self-indulgent online diaries with insipid descriptions of daily events. The first one I read this morning described getting up and reading other blogs.
\nInsulating is by far the worst part of a job. Worse than the initial demo, foundation digging, or even what is about to come, blueboard hanging.
\nItchy inhaled glass fibers in an enclosed, unventilated space. I\u00c3\u00add rather drink Draino; the end would come sooner.
\nI lied to Matt and Robby, I told them this was going to be easy and we\u00c3\u00add be done in half a day. It was difficult and it took us almost all day. And, I was grouchy, I heard nothing they said, and in spite of their usual good work, could only see their mistakes.
\nOn our drive home, I relaxed, while the boys planned their showers. After Matt took his, he went to bed. I don\u00c3\u00adt expect to see him until tomorrow.
\nWe passed our wiring, and rough inpections and today we’ll pass the insulation inspection.
\nThe building inpector, who runs into far too many builders clueless about alternatives to wood, wished others could see Adam’s creative tie rod design.

\nUpdate: Chris from Trusty Transport called from Pennsylvania to say he had Matt’s BMW and would arrive in Acton sometime this morning. Our sketchy plan is that he’ll drop the car somewhere near the Rt 2 exit, and with Matt at the wheel, I’ll tow it home.

\nInsulation is in and the boys have changed from their long sleeves. All that is left is stappling the plastic vapor barrier.
