Busy Busy Busy!

Today was an action packed day of busy. This morning we worked on the guest room, which lasted basically all day. We've been putting up wainscoting, and it's proving to be a pain in the ass. We didn't finish today, but we came close to getting everything up. We have a little area left by the window. So, that's probably going to be the hardest part. Then we need to put the baseboard, chair rail, and trim up, then paint. I *hope* we're done by Wednesday.


Then, while all of this was going on, I had to go to Sam's & the grocery store, do laundry(all day), clean the house, sweep off the deck & wipe down the deck table, and fix dinner. It was just non-stop all day, and I'm tired.


My advice to you is this. If you are going to put up wainscoting, don't. If you are really set on that idea, like I was, pay a professional to do it. Trust me on this one.


With that little piece of advice, I leave you. I need some rest.

I strongly agree with your conclusion, Dana. It's no different with wallpaper (putting up and especially removing): Hire a professional.
Healthier for the marriage, too, in most cases. ;-)

Hahahahah we got all the yelling out of the way by noon, and got down to work.

Best tort/retort of the day:

"How come you always have your shit together at work but cant get it together at home?"

"Because I'm a professional computer guy, not a professional construction worker"

Anyway, it was all love and puppydogs again after a few hours of work.
