Just moved in and started working on my house. What started as painting moved in to drywall/insulation, and from there I started to find a lot of problems, like floor joists being nailed in to the studs and not sitting on anything. I got to work fixing those, moving from one end of the room to the other popping studs underneath. Then I pulled more of the drywall down and found this:


REALLY?? no wonder the floor sunk an inch every time I stepped around that area.
I've found a ton of "REALLY??"s in there now...an extension cord powering bathroom lights, just sort of pressed in between the drywall and studs rather than through, live knob and tube just cut and left in the ceiling in a pile of sawdust and dirt... cant believe this house didn't fall down or catch fire
