What to do with 2 weeks off of workFiled Under: Life
So you would think that with 2 weeks off of work that I would find some more time to be on-line and write… WRONG!
I have way too many things that I think I want to do. Besides reading Bram Stokers Dracula, purchasing and installing a new over-the-range microwave and Refrigerator (not over-the-range, silly rabbit), and installing Gusty on my lappy (thanks Karl); I have decide I need to learn how to be a “real man” and install tile. My buddie Dustin is the king of all that is know as “building” and so I recruited him to help me because I have never done anything like this before.
The back bathroom in our condo has been crying to me for a while now and all it talks about it tile. So I said, “Damn you bathroom, if I give it to you will you leave me alone!…” It agreed and I started.
As some of you have noticed by now I must have a Mohawk when working on projects.
After the walls were stripped of their precious Sheetrock, they received the new Hardybacker with all the love and tenderness that a child can give a parent. And with a whine asked when it was going to get its tile. Walls are so impatient.
As my Yachting partner Mac-tastic blurted out when she saw it, we have a brick pattern on the walls with a windmill on the floor. The product is Slate from Lowes. Oh, Lowes how you make my projects accessible.
Well, I am about a week out from grouting with what I have left to put up, plus the Grand mal seizure of a holiday that is Christmas, and our little trip to Cali for 4 days. Hopefully it will be done before the new Semester. (Thats right I have a bachelors and I’m going back for more undergraduate work, in one word- Masochistic.)
