According to Tache, I talk too much about the first definition of innards and the subsequent movements they create. Therefore, I will avoid discussing that here with you all today. (You’re welcome.) Instead, I’d like to share all the details of our house innards. And by that I mean electrical and plumbing – the internal parts of the house that we will likely (and hopefully!) never see again once they are covered with insulation, drywall, paint, and artwork. Or, if you’d like to describe a house using the first definition: fat, skin, lotion, and jewelry. Whoa, this took a weird turn…

This step of the building process has been tedious and time-consuming. There’s been a lot of talking, planning, and discussing (not arguing!) about the most strategic and practical location to flip a light switch. And not to circle back to my intestinal activities, but there were numerous conversations about which direction the toilet should face. Don’t fret – we figured it out. Multiple hundreds of holes were drilled through studs, joists, and floors that were constructed not so long ago. All to allow these vital innards to bring life to our house.

And to think all this hard work will be covered up and never seen again… but oh how we will love these innards when they do what they’re supposed to do!
