Thus ends a few days off. I casually worked on the bathroom ceiling, and the server issue was more of a something to do thing.
Things I learned on my summer long weekend vacation.
Whip/Mix the drywall mud
For large areas, buy or rent a drywall texture gun. Those little bomb cans get expensive really quickly.
Texture guns WILL get texture everywhere. Especially true for open architecture rooms. Mask off curtains, floors, cats, dogs, da wife (very important), walls that you don’t want texture on.
Learn not to giggle uncontrollably while using the texture gun. I know it’s hard to do, with the farty sounds and when the air pressure gets low, it looks like it’s throwing drywall poop, but giggling throws the texture in the wrong places and unevenly.
Though 99% of the time she is straight with you, watch out for that other 15% of the time. Like when she says “It’ll be so good to take a shower in our bathroom.” or “I can’t wait for the bathroom to be done.” it doesn’t necessarily mean she wants you to work on it over vacation.
and remember…
