New Floor Joists

Got the main floor joist installed.  It's being put in to double up one existing joist, so that I can hang my new support beams from it.  Here you can see it going in:
Here it is installed.  The prep work, removing the window, pulling the wires, and some other minor items took just about all day.  Here it is installed:
Putting the beam in itself was pretty quick.  Probably only took 30 minutes.  The main work will be doing the other framing and replacing the window I removed.  I put some temporary wood over the window as you can see from the outside:

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath.  Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down.  Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad.  Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat.  Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish.  Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.
