House update: Friday

[electricland]

My aunt reports:

Today for lunch, John, Dan, David and I had tacos, with garnish of sour cream, salsa, cheese and grated lettuce. And blue tostitos.

David, Dan and William finished drywall on the first floor ceiling.* Still needs taping and mudding. The second floor is starting.

John went to Rona, and bought screws, drywall, sonapan and an angle (a sort of thing you put in corners, I think).

Jen has acquired for Robin from the public library system and nice book on drywalling,** and an accompanying DVD. (I wonder how it ends?)

Cheers, Helen

*Now that is EXCITING.
**I read part of it on Wednesday and was pleased to note that I had already learned much of what was in the first 3 chapters. Although it did have clever advice about using a chalk line to mark off long, awkward lines.

Also, punmeister has posted his photos from 2 weeks ago, and they are utterly gorgeous. I don't know how he found all those wonderful textures and things. I assure you the place doesn't look that nice in real life. (Although it will!) For those of you wondering, I'm the one in glasses and a red bandana.
