SED - Day 17 - Finally Productive
May. 17th, 2015 09:32 pmI've actually done stuff today - it's about time, right? LOL
We (well. TheHubs™ mostly) have finished flooring the hall. It was a right pig to do; it narrowed into a point at the far end, and neither of knew what we are doing when it came to the door jams. They aren't going to look professional, but white baseboard will cover up most of the sins. He's done really well. I've also washed and dried five loads of clothes. We have a monstrous washer and dryer, left over from the tea room laundry days, so they are BIG loads.
The house is a wreck; I doubt we'll ever get all the sawdust out of the house, and our poor air filter is clogged with dust. We've promised ourselves we'll finish the dirty work by tomorrow. We still have so much to do, and I've still got clothes to fold and sawdust to hoover up. But I'm so glad the flooring is down, with one box of planks left over and a couple more besides. That makes me very pleased. We've managed to do everything under budget, and with very little waste. And we did it all by ourselves, with a little help from friends. I will have photos tomorrow, after we clean up all the sawdust.
