Whoa, I just saw this draft post that I wrote back in September but never published:
Jake started finishing our basement about a month ago, and Day 1 was less than successful…
Broke window while loading studs
FOUND HUMONGOUS SPIDER
**UPDATE: I’m happy to say that we’re almost done with the basement!! Jake will get the bathroom finished in time for our visitors this week, and after that, we just have some touch-up work to do here and there. We’ve been so appreciative of all the help we’ve received from friends and family, and I’m very proud of Jake for taking on such a huge project. I know that he really just wanted to do the basement so he could get a TV – fine by me, the motivation worked! I’ll post pics of the mostly finished product soon.
BTW, I know that I look like a total moron. I didn’t think this would ever be posted.
