Sorry for the absence but I have been putting in some hours on my daughters place. I am only good for 4 to 6 hours a day and in this heat I have been getting up at 5.30 and getting on site at 7. and working through till noon or so. I try to finish a job or 2 each day.
I can hear you thinking Whoop ady crap that a half day to us. You got to remember I have been retired and piddling for 5 years the last 2 weeks have been a change in my routine big time.
The reason for the big push is I want this place finished by September 1st . Today I had to block in and paint the bedroom walls and ceiling , plus the trim. While I had the ceiling paint open I did the whole place . So it was 700 sq.ft. of ceiling out of the way. I have 2 rooms left to paint and hang trim . The electrician will give me an estimate this weekend on running the mains. The end is in sight .
Growing up I use to like painting. Then as I got older I now truly hate it. Hang in there bud you're almost done.
ReplyDeleteI hate painting always have. Mike I speak for a lot of people "Thank You" I have enjoyed your blog and hate to see you end it! I wish you all the best in your free time. Please consider leaving it up static or occasionally reposting a old post to help new comers to prepping.
DeleteYour blog has a lot of TESTED advice leave it available if you can.
I saw your title on my blog roll and I thought you were working on a great new folk art canvas! Well, the mundane things have to get done too. I never liked painting either.
ReplyDeleteIf I tried folk art painting it would look like a 5 year olds finger painting. House painting it looks as good as drunk uncle Ed could do.
