MCU Phase II

 The McGuirk Construction Universe Phase II (MCU II) has started.  We are reclaiming the old garage and plan to make it a mud-entryway and den.  First, here is a picture of the exterior when it was a garage.

We have taken out the garage door and installed five large windows.
Brick will be added to the bottom, and it should look like it was part of the house.  The inside is coming along.  The entryway wall has been framed, and the electricians have been running wire and adding lights.
I think we'll get some insulation this week, and maybe drywall will start next week, but I'm not sure.  We're hopeful it will be done by some time this summer.  The furnishing of the carriage house is also going well.  We had a couch and a chair delivered this week.
The newspaper is the size of a 55-in flat screen television, which we'll get at some point, but not quite yet.  We also had blinds installed.
The blinds are on all the windows--I just closed two of the blinds to show that they do work.  Ashley plans to build a large high-table to go with the chairs you see in the above picture.  I'm not sure of the timeline for that project, but I'm sure we'll post pictures when it is done.

Nothing else too exciting is happening here.  Bode is off tomorrow from school for a teacher workday.  I have about a month left until our summer break, and I am really looking forward to that!  Pleasant week to all.
