Plumbing is slowly coming along with all but two of the baths having the drain lines in. But still have to connect even those to the main line. In the meantime, Sandra has been cutting up leftover ICF forms and installing them high on the wall between the ends of the floor joists of the 2nd level where the interior foam was missing due to the nature of the build. Why waste the material and it adds another R10 to the space.
And I'm getting quotes back from the contractors for stucco and sheetrock. Definitely more for both of them than we had budgeted. Waiting for one more from a company in Albuquerque. Supposed to have that Thursday. I want to make a decision on at least the stucco on Friday so the winning contractor can begin running foam and lath in preparation. I'm really hoping the guys in Albuquerque can come in significantly less than what I have received so far.

| Probably hard to see, but Sandra's been installing blocks of foam between the floor joists to cover the interior of the concrete there. Unfortunately, we can't cover the concrete beam below that as it is flush with and part of the interior wall surface |
