it was another slow start to the day today. we all arrived on site and there were a lot more people there than yesterday. while waiting on a wood delievery for the all of the interior framing, we set up the site, put out extension cords, set up the chop saw etc. the truck got there at 8:30 and we waited for it to be unloaded. while the lowes man was getting it off the truck cody and i got on the roof to help lauren and josh finish the rafter spacers. they needed help to push them back into place on the last few. there was tons of standing water on the roof that cody and i had to lay in so it was a messy start to the day. once we got done helping them, we moved to ferrying wood into the community area. there were about 5 bundles that were delivered but we got them all moved faster than i would have anticipated. after all the wood was moved we got to start working on the interior framing. we decided though that it would be smart to put the ceiling joist up before we put the walls in so we set up the transit, and after about 4 tries finally got a level line for the rim joist. i kept hitting the transit when we were half way though making the line and we would have to go back re level and start over! it was super frustrating. caroline and megan cut the 2 2x12's that we needed so we were able to start putting them up. we got the 2 ledgers done for the office area and the ledger over the laundry room done before i left for the day. it was a slow day. a lot of waiting and a lot of people standing around. i think though that after everyone gets in the groove it will move more quickly. i sure hope so considering we only have 9 weeks. scary. so we can start framing the interior partitions tomorrow!
