So close to finishing the exterior this year

Post Updated: December 31, 2022

More decisions, more YouTube, more WTF moments, and more projects were added to the list.

I was so close to wrapping up the exterior. The problem was I ran out of cedar siding so more is on the way.

The 2022 completion list:

✓ Demo and replace rotten boards on the other side of the sunroom
✓ Cover the exterior in plywood, then Tyvek
✓ Install new exterior lights on both sides
✓ Trim out the two sliding glass doors
✓ Demo the floor, remove the moldy sheet of vinyl and clay tile
✓ Paint and install the bottom boards
✓ Paint and install the soffit
✓ Trimmed the four massive windows
✓ Put the gutter back up
✓ Stained all of the cedar siding
✓ Cut and installed all of the cedar siding that I had (ordered more)
✓ Attached the new downspout to the gutter

To-do list:
• Start on the interior this winter
• Stain and put up the remaining cedar siding in the spring
• Attach a downspout to the second-floor downspout to discharge rainwater directly into the sunroom gutter instead of over the sliding glass door
• Install a French drain to the left side of the sunroom
