Did only about a quarter of what I wanted to do today. But oh well. Will Tessa and I will get more stuff done tomorrow. I installed all the new door hardware. I started patching up the walls. I tried using real plaster but with there being a water based paint on the walls, it stripped the paint off and didn't stick all that well. So I went back to Home Depot and got sheetrock mud and was able to make the walls look good. I'll need to get some more to finish it. I installed a motion sensor light on the back of the house. I sanded down all the trim in a bedroom for it to be ready to paint. And when Tessa got home from work we decided that it is going to be a lot easier to sand down the floors than to use paint stripper.
If you guys have any suggestions let me know.

So I don't know how much they are to rent or if they have them anywhere around here...remember how I was telling you about the "dustless" floor refinishing.. well apparently is is just a normal sander with a big vacuum attachment.. but it is like 98% dust free.. anyway with that paint on the floor who knows how old it is..and this will get all the "bad" particles out of your house....and you won't have to worry about the new paint or cleaning the walls again!! Oh and have you all decided if you are going light or dark on the floors?? -Brenna

ReplyDeleteDark floors all the way. And Mike again gets the kudos of sanding the floors. I didn't know that it was only 40 bucks a day to rent a floor sander. "KUDOS MIKE DRAKE!"
