GagReel: Measure twice, cut once

theres not supposed to be light showing thru the top

Things are going along nicely today. Grandpa and Grandma were up and G-pa helped out today by power washing the entire outside of the house. Drywalled the kitchen but just need to finish mudding things up. The windows are finished being painted... three coats later!

I finally lost the who has to wash the stucco off the roof fight.. what a rediculous job.. but its done now. A whole week of avoidance later. (those are paintbrushed swears and daggers for those who cant see them)

well fleeep...now I know why I have it! Curse you exposure to Agent Orange

Farewell (14th time in 10 years)

Goodbye my little country shack. I will dearly miss the wolf spiders hanging from my roof an the wood bug carcasses littered all over the floor and picked up by my barefeet. but I did love my garden. the landlady said that she would water so hopefully I will be able to see it next week when I am out!

Colors

Well...we got the official colors picked out today. Red as the feature wall and two tones of grey for the rest of the walls... The outside is going to be a surprise! ..its going to be out there! Rather interesting argument with the ``color consultant`` at the paint place as she tried to convince us that we needed to pick purple orange and green. I said to her ``ok, you know how black and orange reminds you of halloween and green and red reminds you of christmas..ok well those colors remind me of thanksgiving turkey dinner!`` really frustrated by people that want you have their ideas. why cant people just listen to you and then use their expertise to help you put together the ideas you have!

Well its official! Ive moved back to Alberta and here are two pictures of the building we are renovating for our coffee shop! hoping to open soon! worked three days on the building. I never imaged myself mopping a roof for two hours to try and get the plaster off of it after scraping those weird bumpy things off. Mom and I have spent most of the day taking loads of branches to the "organic waste recycling depot". I guess mom has been so used to doing work by herself, she forgot I was there as I found out by her accidently hitting me across the face with a large branch while unloading! Take that you deviant child! We had our first customer today too! a very confuddled old lady who walked up to the door..after I unlocked it, she barged in and stated that she had an appointment. I was like look lady there is nothing in here.. she was very sure that she had always came there for a hair cut and I dont think there has every been a hair dresser in the building! so I sent her a balloon and an alzeimers membership card. yup, a hard day of real work. Im ready for bed!
