One skip and a hop away from floors! We have slowed down a bit, enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday, took some time to realize how lucky we are. Deep breath. Okay let’s go. We painted a lot of pipes (it seems like they never end, so many pipes) finished up trim in the bathroom, added decorative trim on the shelving in the back room, finally fully assembled the floating shelves, dry-walled the stairwell, patched some other areas, scraped off the ancient vinyl daises off a window in the front (thank god for the heat gun), added pavers in the back yard to make a walkway, and painted the stairs going up. The good new is, I think we are done with big paint items! No more paint flecks on my glasses and false alarm white hairs. We gave the basement a good once over and got all of the tools organized and off the floor, getting it all prepped to lay down some bamboo. I also went through tax code for airbnb with my sis Alyss (conveniently an accountant) and she helped clarify the situation. I will try to post a summary on those as well (I’m sure you are all on the edge of your seat)
