the house is helping us
i'm at work now, it's nice to sit in a warm place. my throat doesn't feel quite so sore and scratchy and i'm not too tired right now.
so before i left the guy who is putting in the central return said that the stud that runs through the opening to the return is not load bearing, and there are no beams or joists in the way of the holes he needs to cut to run it down through the closet. which is a like a little miracle. the ceiling he's cutting is sheetrock, too, so we're basically sitting very pretty.
that means his job is faster-- no framing out of anything. the other guy is finishing up the ductwork in the basement. i'm not sure if the gas line has been run out to the furnace and actually, i'm also not sure where they're going to vent it. at this point, i pretty much trust them and definitely want some heat. if the location of the flue is unacceptable then i can get them to come back-- when it's warm-- and re-run it.
