I went to bed before midnight, couldn't fall asleep, and remembered that I left my drill and dremel in the backyard.
It was raining.
I grabbed them and laid back down, but remembered that I left out an extension cord, which was plugged in, so I reeled it in and put it away.
Then there was a loud bang, I got up to see what it was, and Mom said "Go back to bed. It was just thunder."
I finally fell asleep wondering what an emotionally unstable school bus driver in possession of my car might do.
Then my alarm went off to watch the girls.
I wouldn't watch them for anything right now.
I tried to get back to sleep while wondering what an emotionally unstable school bus driver in possession of my car might do.

For some reason I can't sleep!

I finally looked up how to drywall corners and it looks like I need to add framing:

So, cut out 3.5" of insulation, cut 2 2x4s to fit, and attach them in each corner?

I don't look forward to it, but it should work out okay.

There are tons of drywall tips in here, including to have joints between studs, attach each end to a 1x6 backer board, and bend the end of each board to create a void for mud instead of tapering it so it isn't noticeable.

So, I am supposed to do that instead of insulation?
