Digging deep has nothing to do with heavy lifting

You may or may not know that we decided to add on to our abode. Since we have a one story home and no room to expand out due to our pool and neighbors, we are expanding up. We are adding a staircase (the boys' favorite part), a large bonus room over the garage and a full bath. The room is already named "Ed's Retreat", although it is intended to serve as his office as well as a play room for the boys. At any rate, the demolition of the roof and attic started Monday (8/13/07) and in just a few days there were stairs and some framing. Unfortunately, the stairs are not where we expected, so they will be redoing them. The contractor expects the project to take 13 weeks - I just hope it is finished for Christmas. I'd be happy to take bets on the completion date.
