April 4th

Well…that was better…slept pretty well last night and feel okay this morning and my eyes are better…at least I could read my tablet without resorting to having it two feet away and everything seems clear today so I’ll take it…but, I’m coughing like crazy so the trees must be starting to bloom and my allergies are going nuts….crap….I think my right shoulder is edging up to needing some rest since it hurts all the time now and I have more abuse to heap on it today and for the next few weeks as I get the bedroom ready to paint…I do need to plaster a couple of spots that I missed yesterday and I can’t figure that out…I mean one place as big as my hand is right next to one that I filled and I just had to shake my head about missing it….and I do need to do a corner and fill some of the bad skim coat on the ceiling that they ended a couple of inches before it hit the wall…so probably two batches of plaster today before I get to fixing the divots that I put in the walls scraping….we were supposed to get3-5 inches of snow last night but it looks like it stayed warm enough for it to be all rain…we even had a winter weather advisory on all night until noon today and I really, really hope it’s the last one for the spring….not much to do today….back on the bike again here in a few minutes and I hope to get all of the divots and holes in the walls filled so I can sand later in the week….I really can’t believe how many nail holes there are in the walls that were revealed when I removed the wallpaper….not sure if this is a contender for the worst room in the house after the mess that was the kitchen but it’s close…the trim was painted with the carpet in place and some of the old fibers are still stuck in the paint and I’ll have to get some really coarse sandpaper for my small sander to smooth that out…damn, there is still a lot of work to do in there…but it will be worth it when I move in….more later….
