Cloudy and cool day in Dublin today. No work in the bathroom because the tile is on order. The duct work continues for the heating and air. A section of the ceiling and floor near the door had to be cut out for the installation of the in/out air flow unit. Not sure what the technical term is. It just helps circulate fresh air throughout all the vents in each room to make it easier not to mention healthier to breathe in this old house.
Continued to comparsion shop for lighting fixtures today. Kept loosing my wifi connection which made my research somewhat difficult. Nearing the end of my research and in the final stages of selecting all the lighting fixtures for all the rooms in the house. Georgia Power has been notified to turn on our lights. Hopefully, within the next few days, I will have some pictures of the house with lights coming from a source other than orange cords.
John, as you can see from the pictures above, spent a few hours painting the upstairs hallway the pretty yellow with white trim that will extend all the way downstairs. The priming completed, he is applying the first of two coats of yellow. Notice the way in which he rigged his paint brush and roller to use in areas where he could not reach. Pretty ingenious not to mention safer. Could not use a ladder to do the work, too dangerous. The work on the house is a labor of love for John. He just loves the work and is relaxing for him. When he is painting or doing other stuff around the house, I just do my thing, whatever errands I need to run, housework or computer work and before you know the day is done, time for a shower, dinner, tv, then to bed and prepare for the next day.
So that is all that has been done today. Relatively quiet day, workwise. Sanding, Priming, and painting will start in the bathroom soon. Cannot wait because you cannot paint when the conditions are at a certain temperature.
Keep checking my blog for updates.
