Well…okay, have a catch 22 that has reared it’s ugly head as I’ve done damage to my right arm with all of the work around here…when I hit the sack, I need to lie on my right side to keep my nose from plugging up so I can’t breathe and can’t sleep…but that leaves me howling in pain as it is right now…and if I sleep on my left side, my head immediately plugs up and I can’t sleep on that side, either, but my right side doesn’t hurt…need to figure this one out and I think it will probably include resting my right arm to let it heal up…but I don’t have time for that in my schedule to have the bedroom done before the end of May…hmmmm….I was down in the basement when I got up at 5:30 to take a look at the hinges that I let soak in strip overnight to get the multiple coats of heavy paint off….it worked pretty well and I cleaned them up and wire brushed the parts and screws…they will be usable with a new coat of black paint that I’ll do later today so I can put the door back on after I repair and paint the door frame later this morning….I think these old hinges will look pretty cool when I’m done with them…have them soaking in soap and water right now to get the last of of the strip off them and will take them out to dry as soon as I get off the bike…and that gives me the process I need to do the door frame in the bathroom before I paint the walls in there….too damn much work and I am going to try to take Sunday off to rest my hands since Monday is going to be a dust day and I am going to try to do all of the remaining sanding so I can start to paint the trim and let it set for a couple of weeks to harden before I mask it off to do the grey walls….damn, this one turned into a work one so I guess I owe you a life one later….will do that when I get off the bike….more later….
