Introduction.

Hello my name is Joel.  I have decided to began a blog that shows our progress of the finishing of the basement.  I say we because, although I'll be doing the majority of the work, my wife will be doing the more difficult task of running the upstairs.  This includes taking care of our two daughters that are much more of a handful than pounding freaking nails into a piece of wood.

I started the project on Tuesday, July 21, 2011 with the guidance of my Father to start me in the right direction.  Who knows how long this is going to take.  This is where I should mention that I literally have no clue what I'm doing and I am admittedly scared to take this project on.  Although I have had a lot of offers to help, I prefer to work alone with my music and nobody to bother me.  This allows me to take my time and ensures a more stress free journey as I head into the land of the unknown.  They say there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.  Let's hope my light doesn't end up being a train.
