that's all the old plaster and insulation from upstairs (well not all of it, only what I've ripped down and bagged up so far) - it weighs 150-200 a bag and I've only torn out about half of it. Completely filled a 3 yard bagster junk disposal bag.

I test drove a 2012 focus 5 speed a couple months ago. Hated it, one of the worst vehicles I test drove. Immediately striken off the list. It has the worst steering wheel I have ever felt on any vehicle (including go carts), and the biggest blind spot I've ever seen. (or not been able to see, for that matter)

The actual steering wheel. It has these hard plastic steering nubs at 10 and 2, which make it nearly impossible to get a good grip on the steering wheel there.

Gutted bathroom yesterday... starting to go back together.
Had a shower base i installed years ago crack.. and didnt notice it till felt a soft floor. Think it may have been because it wasnt centered over the joist, so we added one and another under a new Whirlpool bath. Didnt cheap out on the base this time around either..
It's cool having a union carpenter as a son.. when you have no framing experience.
