No Canoe Today. Insulation Instead.
Oct. 7th, 2010 08:08 pmI made arrangements to have the insulation in the attic brought up to R38 which is recommended for this area. That means blowing in an extra R-19 over the living spaces (we already have R-19 which was standard in the 60s when the house was built) and a complete R-38 over the garage (because now it is a woodshop and needs insulation.)
I had expected them to come Friday but they started today instead. They have been perfectly nice, but I kind of felt that I had to stay home with them in case they needed anything, plus every scrap of material going into the attic had to move through the woodshop first so I moved the canoe out onto the lawn.
They admired the canoe very much.
I have not been able to work on Constance at all, and I feel very strange about that. But I do need to get the insulation done and if this is when they can do it, this is when it needs to happen.
I got a lot of League work done instead--wrote an article for the local paper about the candidates who are coming and called five more people and invited them. I am running out of people to invite.
I sure hope we get more people at this Candidates' Forum--if all this inviting doesn't make any difference I don't know that I will be up for doing it again.
