It sure is hard to do something like sand plaster when you’re pregnant. The exertion required (and movement) is draining. So I didn’t do much last night but get the closet prepped (hung a sheet and got the vacuum ready) and started some sanding. The wall that’s drywall wasn’t bad of course so that’s done, …
After getting Fitz from daycare and getting home at a reasonable time I decided to get another coat of spackle on the closet while Fitz slept and Ryan was playing basketball. It was tiring but went pretty quickly and I think we may be good with the closet now. Next up is to sand the …
With the amount of work ryan had to do this weekend, he really surprised me when he said he’d do house work on sat and just work Sunday. I had not been getting my hopes up with the late nights he’s been pulling that he’d have time this weekend. Saturday we got to work on …
It’s been a while since I posted because we hadn’t done much around the house but this weekend we got a lot done. First up on Saturday morning we went shopping. We went over to AcMoore and got the antique maps my dad gave us framed (well we’ll get them in a few weeks – …
Last week (Thursday night) I managed to motivate myself to do a little spackling on the tvroom closet! Got a skim coat on the left side plaster wall and taped the right wall. The ‘corner’ has to be taped on the right and that’s going to be interesting with the curve but that’s for next …
Christmas came early to this Williams’ family. The main reason was that I wanted Ryan to get to use his main christmas present before christmas AND I wanted to give him all his gifts (since they all went with the main gift) at once. So ryan set my big gift up for the same day …
“Happy thought indeed”. Name that movie. This weekend was quite productive, starting right out Friday night (I was working late upstairs but Ryan got home and started right in on the built-ins). When I came down later there were SHELVES in the bookcases! They were just plywood to start out but by Saturday morning he …
We had a very full weekend! Saturday morning we cut up the branches from the halloween storm and took them to the dump. Then we worked on the built-ins – first installing the bookcases and then building and installing the face frames for the bookcases. They look great and will look even better once the …
Not as productive as some weekends, Ryan got very little sleep last week (getting up at 5am is definitely rough) and I was exhausted which meant I got a headache AGAIN on Sunday – fun times. Anyhow, we did get some work done 🙂 Saturday we recycled half of the aluminum we’ve been storing, then …
I never did write about last weekend, we went to my sister-in-laws so Ryan could help his Dad and brother-in-law work on the roof and add a new dormer. This weekend we had planned to work on the window panels however the rain kept us inside all weekend instead. While I puttered and did various …
