12.28.2018

We were under a winter weather advisory this morning with ice and sleet so we had no plans to venture outside much.  Jim did more work in the metal shop this morning, finishing up the circuit to the lights and wiring in the switches.


Then...let there be light!  Very exciting!  Plus, Jim got the wiring done into the breaker box so he could get rid of some extension cords.  He needs to get some more wire before continuing on so meanwhile he extended the conduit matrix along the beam in the next area.


Later on, he did head outside to do a little work on the pole barn.  It wasn't great weather for it - very foggy and a bit drizzly but he was determined.  He got the last piece of siding done next to the door.  This was difficult - he had J-channel on both sides and had to figure out how to get the siding in between.  It obviously doesn't bend so he ended up having to bend the J-channel enough to get the siding in and then bend it back into place.  But everything lines up perfectly and looks so finished.


He also got all the small siding pieces that go over the garage door installed.


After that, he made and installed some blocking pieces to go in between the ceiling joists in certain areas.


Since we got the treadmill all cleaned up, I decided to try it out today.  Jim even ended the day with a run.  That was one of the first times he's run since he had his knee surgery so he took it slow, but we are both excited to get back to a little cardio work when time allows!
