I’m no longer upset that I have created a hole in the subflooring of my closet. I have rationally looked over the situation. There are already three holes in that flooring……they were cut for the three pipes to come up from below. So, why should I be upset that there is now a fourth hole?

I just need to cover it up. Just a nice little repair. Just another deviation from the primary objective. I must remember the primary objective of the closet work….strengthen the finished floor so that it will support the new washer/dryer. (By the way, the washer/dryer is being delivered today!)

One good thing about the hole I created is that I now know where the crossbeams are. I will cover that hole today and then put the strengthening supports right over those crossbeams. That way the finished floor will be very strong!

So, it’s back to work in the small closet. I hope I don’t encounter any more problems. The hole is actually my second problem in the closet. I sure hope there isn’t a third!

Ya’ll take care,
Suzanne
