What a Difference Two Months Makes

Just over 2 months ago, the house looked like this:
And now....
There are a couple of additions that I saw for the first time this week. First is the platform in the media room. We decided to move the door a little and go ahead and build a platform so that we could possibly have two levels of seating. Of course, all of this is for the that hypothetical furniture and hypothetical projector/screen/speakers that we will have one day, when our hypothetical children are teenagers! Ha!
And the second addition is the "bonus room". This came about in the past two weeks when we decided that part of the attic would really make a nice bonus room... ONE DAY. We made arrangements to have all the furnaces, water heaters, etc placed in the back part of the attic so that ONE DAY we could turn the attic above the garage into a bonus room. Well, ONE DAY got here a few years earlier than I thought it would and now, we have a bonus room that will hopefully serve as an exercise room for a while until those same hypothetical children take over.
So now that framing is over it's on to plumbing, A/C and electrical--all the stuff that needs to go inside the walls before the sheet rock. I'm really ready for sheet rock. I've done pretty well with visualizing things since I have been in the house so much. But I know that the sheet rock will really solidify the feeling of the house and I can't wait!
