Oh holmes, you are so right. I picture it in my mind and all I see is this big gaping hole in my ceiling with tiles and insulation on the floor and I don't know where to start. If I break it down, start small. I guess I have to start from the bottom and work up...I need to clean the insulation. But there is so much of it and so little time. Start in one corner I guess. I kept looking up this morning thinking if only I had more money, I'd really like to turn that part of the attic into a loft, now that it's open! Teflon--I totally ran out of teflon. I will absolutely spray it all over me! Holmes, you are so wise and caring, and always bring such great perspective to things. Breathing, I need to remember to do that!
