Today the inside garage door comes down and the wall goes up to replace it in the office/family room. A closet should follow the next day and I’m guessing it will take a day or so to spray seal that room. Mr. Contractor must also frame and trim the windows in there. He hasn’t even started upstairs. No way will he finish in 3 days like he promised. Not possible.
I underestimated too!
I also thought I’d have that bathroom done in a day but missed the mark. I started painting at 7:00 AM yesterday morning and it’s finished, but I have to have help hanging the mirror and still have to clean. I keep getting pulled off task. Like… once I had polyurethane on my brush, I coated closet doors.
While I’m not 100% sold on a lot of the stuff the sellers chose here, the solid wood doors I really like. The light in the kitchen over the bar… not so much.
The weather is gorgeous right now!
Yesterday was another perfect day and today should be even better! Lots of outside work planned and a trip to buy a few necessities — like a chainsaw (OH MY!) and mouse poison that won’t kill pets if they eat one of the dead little dudes. I sound so “rural” talking all about chainsaws and mice, don’t I? 😉
At least Dharma is listening!
Incoming next week are gutter guards — I keep getting birds in the downspout with no way to get them out. And, we need about 500 ton of decorative rock and have to spray weeds again. Either the weed killer was mixed too weak or the weeds around here are on steroids. And finally, I have heating and air dudes coming on the 20th. I’m hoping that won’t be another $10K. 😬
TIL (Today I Learned): A baboon named Jack officially worked for South African railways (1881-1890) as a signalman and was paid twenty cents a day, and half a bottle of beer each week. Jack never made a single mistake in his entire Railway career.
