It is cold.

We are doing something to the house which is way overdue: residing. And replacing the decks.

It is currently cold as there are holes in the wall. (temporary) It will be better - much - when it is fixed.

The decks were unsafe. This is something we have known for years - we are now able to fix them.

What is striking me the most is, as the decks and siding are removed, the crappy construction of the original builder is being revealed. It is a miracle things haven't fallen apart.

It is similar to teaching. As you start peeling away a student's misconceptions, the faulty foundation is revealed. The difference is that the student has an obligation to help lay the foundation down.
