The stain wasn’t quite dry enough last night to do the first coat of poly so I took an hour and a half this morning and got it done by myself and Ryan took Alex to daycare to save me some time.

Poly is on!

It went pretty well, the first coat doesn’t need sanding/vacuuming before hand so the second and third coats will take more time.  The floor is somewhat protected now though with at least one coat on so I feel better about it.

Our contractor showed up today to start working on the small porch off of our bedroom.  He took out the screens and took off the sills and is working on rebuilding it a bit.  The porch roof leaks where the porch is since we took the siding off so he’s got to fix the leaks (flashing and shingles should help).  I think we may leave the porch open (no screens) for now, it looks nicer but there’s a lot of work to make it look really nice that’s for sure!
