Trouble in the home remodel

Just when you think things can’t get much worse… it will. We’ve been going on two months (or is it 3?…) of remodeling the house, and the latest setback has been our old tile ceiling caving in. Now, don’t go thinking it was the roof, because it wasn’t. The old ceiling tiles, made out of the same material suspended ceilings are made out of, are what collapsed. The previous owner, durning the last remodel, instead of removing the old set, chose to just glue more ontop of the old… making it twice as thick and heavy. I had steped on a corner of the ceiling and made it sag during my escapades with rewiring, and we were in the process of fixing it last saturday when the whole thing came down. No one was injured however, my cell phone was a casualty in the accident. I’ll be getting a new one by thursday.
Anyhow, I’ve uploaded some pics after the cleanup of the fallen ceiling. Which you can see, the air is still very dusty. And also some of our fancy sheet rock work from my day off yesterday.
