While I am definitely making progress as I look back each week, it is no where near enough! But, I can only get so much done each day, so I plod on...
Yesterday, I finished putting in the outdoor outlets that have to be in on the living end of the house. I have two I want to put in the garage end of the house, and that will be easy (now that I've had the practice I've had), plus they can be done any time. I should note that on both the front porch and on the deck, I've had them wire a switched outlet for us to plug Christmas lights into. They are up high on the wall by the porch / deck headers. So, those outlet boxes are in also.
Got back to working on getting the whirlpool set in place, and ran into a slight problem -- where I didn't make the decking quite tall enough, so I end up with about a quarter inch below the rim of the tub. For reasons that are difficult to explain, I really can't just raise the decking up, so I'm going to have to have the tub set on the feet, and have shims to support the tub itself, and then just caulk around it to fill the gap. I really don't like this solution, but I made a pretty significant miscalculation... It will be good to have the weight of the tub setting primarily on the concrete directly, and I can fill the gap to prevent water from leaking under the rim...
Anyway, I have so many things to finish, it makes my head spin... So, who knows which I'll work today!
But first, I am ready to go to church this morning and focus my mind on the Creator and Sustainer of life and all that is and the Provider of all our needs and so much more!
