Time to Wire and Insulate






Today the insulation crew was out to install all of the insulation in our addition. One thing I realized is that I had not run the cable and phone line yet. I ran to our new Home Depot here in Pflugerville and grabbed some cable to run for the TV and some CAT5 cable for our phone line. While I was there I started thinking that I should probably go ahead and prewire for some outdoor speakers while the ceiling was open, so I grabbed some speaker wire. I love it when a plan comes together. I ran the cable and phone wire to the office where we are going to have Laura's desk and TV. Then I ran enough speaker wire for 4 speakers to the outside of the house. I figure we will have speakers under the soffet, so 2 went on the patio side and 2 on the pool deck side. I ran the wires back to where we are going to have the TV, so we can have all of the electronics in one place. I was able to work just ahead of the insulation crew getting the wires run before they put the insulation in. When it was all done, you wouldn't believe how cool the room was. Cheers!
