DIY – Day 3 (a.k.a. jeez, we made it!!)

Posted on March 4, 2006 By admin 2 Comments on DIY – Day 3 (a.k.a. jeez, we made it!!)

It's been a looooong day, but it's over and we're done. For now. We finished what we wanted to do. The upstairs rooms are done and so is the kitchen.

We thought we were ahead of schedule this morning but then Sod's law reared its ugly head. The smallest room required the most work. The white walls required 3 coats of paint to finally cover (compared to only one coat for the blue paint). We then had to give another coat to the last wall on the bedroom when we noticed that it had streaked.

Finally, we got everything sorted out and started out on the kitchen. The first coat was scary as hell because we realized just how many bits and pieces there were to paint and we thought the paint wouldn't cover well. The second one went on smoothly though and the kitchen looks great!

So now we're back home and we need to pack the last of our things.

Tomorrow is going to be a bitch.

Quote of the day

The Librarian of Unseen University had unilaterally decided to aid comprehension by producing an Orang-utan/Human Dictionary. He'd been working on it for three months. It wasn't easy. He'd got as far as "Oook".
--(Terry Pratchett, Men at Arms)
