All one color
This week. :) I had the week off. I originally took it off to help Laura (my sweet wife) get the grunt work done on her installation for her thesis show. The opening is this Friday at Adams State College in the art building. BUT, there was a good bit of time when she didn't need me.
So I got lots of things cleaned up at the gallery/studio. I got all the leftover 2X4's and 2X6's cut up into stove length and out of the yard. I got the siding put up on the 2 wall sections we installed earlier. I did lots of running around concerning Laura's grad present. I got lots of the yard waste cleaned up and made a trip to the dump. I got the yard mowed for winter. With some help from Pablo I got the ceiling in the garage and kitchen and laundryroom insulated to over R-30 for this winter. With Crystal's help I got drywall hung and scaffolding moved and big piles of dystroyed lathe and plaster moved to the trailer to take to the dump later on. We also got every storm window in every hole in the house save one. That one I have to take to the glass shop and repaired, it's a downstairs one that's pretty large and is important to get done. I moved out lots more trash. I got the garage/studio all cleaned up more than once. I prepped the installed siding and later on today Crystal came and helped me paint it. I love love love that it's all the same color in the back now.
So here I sit, getting ready for bed. The big hairy stuff is hung for Laura's show and the gallery is ready (mostly) for winter. This week I'll get the last couple tiny sheets of drywall hung and work on getting some good heat in there. It's still being heated with a woodstove at this point, but it's having an easier time with all the storms up and decent insulation in the place. Today I also started removing the old driveway, it's higher than the garage and water runs in. I kinda like tearing out old concrete. :) It's a little twisted but I do like it.
Coffee breaks over, back on my head.
