I also filled in around the hose.

And a spot around the drain pipe I missed the first time, where it didn't expand like I expected.

I also completed the XPS installation to 100% including the sides.


And put in the rest of my remaining insulation. I had enough to finish one side, and one more batt in the center portion.

As I was doing the side, I realized I did something incredibly stupid. Like worse than rookie levels of stupid. Trivia question: what is wrong with this picture?

At that point I was out of insulation. I have one piece of XPS left, which is complete. I am out of floor insulation, so I was looking for what I had left I could do. I started by putting in the last can of spray foam that I had.

I also had silicone left, so I finished sealing in the windows.

I made a shopping list, which is quite long, and then called it a day. It was still early, but but I looked at the parking lot of Home Depot on the way home and decided nah. I will stop in when I go grocery shopping tonight.
To answer the trivia question above, if you said I put the screws right through the pipe, you are a winner. Unfortunately I already returned the PEX crimpers, but I got the hangers removed so I cut off the piece that I just screwed up and recrimp it. I am out of cinch clamps for the 3/4", so those are on the shopping list. While it was a really stupid mistake, I am at least glad I found it before I turned the water on. I never tested the PEX connections, since I knew the way I was doing it was sound (same process as the repair I did at Christmas), and pressure testing those lines would be a real pain.

With the foam board complete, that is another tick off the checklist.
- Fix ruts in driveway.
Put lights on the plow.Get the oil changed in the tractor.Get the tire chains installed and a weight installed on the back.Get the plastic installed- Get the truck oil undercoated.
Fix leaky underbelly.- Get skirting installed.
Find a way to run power that won't be damaged by snow/plow/snowblower.- Find a way to prevent the snow pushing on the shed.
Finish clearing off the slab.- Run the rough plumbing. (includes gas line for stove)
Venting and DrainageWater supply- Gas lines
Install wall insulation.- *Install flooring. *12
Install foam board- Install floor insulation.
