I got some good news back from the IRS so I decided to tear out the last exterior wall...I was feeling froggy. The sun was out and I found a door I liked so away I went. It took me a little bit to move the wiring out of the wall without damaging it. Our fridge and lights are still hooked into the old circuits. The demo was easy because there was not much left. I had to shim up the plywood on top of the footer that was poured when the kitchen floor was torn out. I could not get to it at the time because the wall was in the way. I framed the wall with 2x6 studs for a little better R-value. We got a pretty swanky door with the blinds built into the window panel so at least I don't have to worry about tearing that up. I tried to save as much of the spring box as possible so we can use it as a planter on the back porch someday. We finally have all the air leaks stopped....for some reason I did not fix the wall before winter.
