Well…up at 4:51 this morning but was able to get back to sleep until a little after 6 and I’ll take it…it’s 2 degrees out there right now and I am happy that I don’t have to go anywhere for the next couple of days….just checked the weather and it looks like not much snow for the next 10 days and that gets us 10 days closer to spring…it hasn’t been a bad winter for my first one out here and I do need to check to see if this is a normal winter for Muskegon or if I need to plan for a worse one next winter….with all of the work I’ve been doing on the house I’ve let this place go a bit and I need to clean and straighten this place up some after I get the kitchen done…but I still need to finish the doors this morning and start planning the painting of the rest of it….the downstairs cleanup is going to be a little worse than I expected…I guess I didn’t have the dust corralled as well as I thought and there is a light film of it everywhere…but that can’t happen until I sand, fill, and paint the drawers and I will get at that after the doors are hung Monday….the cortisone cream did work on the rashes I got from sanding yesterday and they are not itching nearly as much as they were….but, I’m still concerned that this is going to happen every time I expose myself to dust and that is still going to happen a lot as I prep for painting…not much to do today….just going to get the bike ride in and then get painting on the fronts of the cabinet doors that will probably take most of the day…but it will be easy with no detail work to do so I can just use a roller to get a good finish….oh, I did paint one of my detail touches on the edge of the countertop where they had painted it white and I changed that to the same grey as the doors and the walls of the kitchen…it looks pretty cool and I can’t wait to see how it looks with the doors up…more later…
