Home Improvement

Leave no stone (or piece of drywall) unturned. Or the best laid plans… Well our goals got a little pushed back today. We found more of the dreaded “M-word.” Hopefully this will be the last of it. Luckily it was confined to a small area near a door frame. While cutting that out, I did find a little treasure trove however. 

More hidden treasures!

 I don’t even want to think what else might be lurking in our walls. As long as I don’t hear crawling, I’m not going to think about it!!! Dad did some finishing work around the new bathtub and the entire bathroom as well as getting our closet access panel ready for painting. I did quite a bit more sanding and mudding in preparation for the priming and texturing. Mom was Jenny on the spot. She was everywhere, helping and cleaning, as well as a dozen things I am sure I am forgetting. Sorry Mom. Estela and her family had to head to Bakersfield for the weekend, so it was just Mom, Dad, Myself, and the solicitors (Seriously, how friggin many water filtration guys are going to come by???)

Unfortunately we didn’t get to play with the texturing paint. I’ll have to review that tomorrow. The bathroom is almost ready for the tile. That should start going in tomorrow as well. The tub and shower are almost done. Things are getting there. Maybe slowly, but definitely surely. Time has come to sleep off another long, hard day of work so I’ll sign off once again. We’ll post ya later.
