New home owner today. Moving in probably Sunday. Saturday is supposed to be shitty weather and I don't want to get all my stuff wet.

That's no problem though you have Igloo insurance right? right?

Almost done replacing the floors and baseboards in nearly half our house!

Floor leveling was a bit of a nightmare at first, but once I figured it out - no prollem.

Knew you could do it.

Fuck, if I can do it, anybody can.

My first patch job was a comedy of errors. I wish I could have recorded it.

* Mixed it too thick
* Mixed it with my impact drill, which sprayed it everywhere in the garage due to EXTREME RPMZZZZ
* Mixer put a crack in the bucket, which I realized after I dripped concrete all over the house
* Dropped the battery for my other drill in the concrete

And many more. It was a shitty thirty or so minutes. But after that, smooth sailing.

+++++++++++++++

The crew finished up the windows yesterday afternoon.

They look damn god.

And they open! And they close tightly and aren't drafty! And we can see out of all of them!

Much new office windows.

Need to get new blinds or something.

Old ones would have to be screwed to the face.

No thanks.
