What were we thinking?

The last few days around our neck of the woods has been pretty hazy outside.

It makes one want to just stay inside all day...

But then this week OUR inside hasn't been much less hazy...

We are finishing the basement...  {yippee}

insulation was done Monday...

sheetrock today...

(actually tonight apparently?  Shane told me the guy said he could come at 6 and probably be done by 7...  I'm a little confused, I'm sure it will take more than an hour... so... does that mean he will be working under us ALL NIGHT LONG???  I think Shane needs a few more details, like where the AM's and PM's fit in... don't you?  Cuz if that's the case... we may be reconsidering the fast track...  Or we are all wearing earplugs...)

It all seemed like such a fantastic idea...

but after the "dust" settled from the blown in insulation Monday...

and my ENTIRE HOUSE was coated in a not so fine layer of this...

I'm rethinking the whole idea!

Pretty sure drywall isn't going to help the matter much...

The girls are TOTALLY excited for their Christmas Break...

I'm sure it's because they are so ecstatic about helping me clean all week!!
