Former leak in pipe remains fixed. Skating rink fundraiser in garage cancelled. Noticed that DH mentions the incident in his blog also.
The wall painting project has progressed to the “touch up places where paint bled under masking tape” stage, but it’s basically done. The ceiling touch-ups are more along the lines of “roller-size swipes of orange paint on white must be painted over with big brush” stage. Yep, next time we mask the ceiling with tape at least as wide as the paint roller.
The hardwood floor project in the third bedroom, formerly known as the Tiny Room Full O’ Spackle, is nearly done. All it needs is a bit of cutting on the remaining few boards, and then time to buy and stain molding. I was planning on getting a miter saw to do the angle cuts, since we’ll need it later for crown molding downstairs. However, the DeWalt 12″ compound miter saw I was going to get for free may not be for free. It looks like it’s been removed from the catalog from the incentive outfit I belong to from work. AUGH!
Strike that about no catastrophes. I just lost everything I wrote. Note to self: don’t hit the “back” button on a web-based blog update, dummy.
