post 9: day 6 bye wall, hello skylight

I skipped going to the house last night after work. Garrett and I had plans downtown after work and I had to make dinner in our small Airbnb (dull knives, electric stove, tiny pots and pans, and oh yeah, it was 100 degrees.) 
And we had a meeting for this morning with Alex and the electrician anyway.
First thing I noticed was that the kitchen floor underlayment was installed. 
Next thing was they removed the brick/lath mess to reveal the opening that will soon be a half-screen wall. Buh-bye, wall!
The framers came in and framed in the bench that will be in the downstairs bathroom. It's not a great shot since they promptly used it as a place to put insulation but you can see it peeking out underneath. 
Upstairs, the big change is hello, skylight!!! 
Also upstairs, see the upper box there? That's going to be the temperature setter for our radiant heat floor!! Waking up on a winter's day is going to be so much easier (or harder??) 
Lastly, they moved our office fan so it wouldn't interfere with our new closet. Also, the guy fixed the light, which hadn't been working in a year or so. 
Plumbing and electrical inspections will probably happen next week, with sheet rock and dry wall happening after inspections pass. All of Dmitry and Alex's subs seem super awesome so I hope everything passes!
