Slow and steady...
So... on the house project... I usually only work about 3 or 4 hrs in the mornings. I'm a 'morning person'. This is just about right for the small section I'm working on.
There is a lot of stuff to work around, so the goal is to complete this corner and then move the furniture so i can start on the next area. The next section should go fas cuz there is less to fix.
In case you haven't been around for some of my previous projects, walls take time. It's all about the joint compound. You put on a layer... Let it dry over night... sand... and repeat. I'm sure i must bore people to death when I talk about it.
I just finished my second layer of mud on my door-hiding wall. It's already starting to look 'normal'! I'm taking tomorrow off. It needs time to dry all the way. I had to sand around the wet parts today.
I found this nifty new drywall sander that makes quick work of it! Its a pumice stone, made for walls. I couldn't believe how much easier it was to use! I'm glad i bought it!
Anyway, hubby and the boyfriend joined in today! Hubby washed the kitchen ceiling. BIG IMPROVEMENT! The boyfriend is installing a cat door.
I Hate to Quit when The Momentum is Picking up... But... It Was A Good Amount of Progress For One day.

I had to read the boyfriend twice before I realized the neighbors boyfriend. I was thinking daughters boyfriend. I'm sure the neighbor feels the blessing of you and hubby in her life. |
Sounds like you and the helpers had a good day. I hope it continues to move along smoothly.
