Good Morning CGs!
It is pouring rain out there today. Which of course reminds me I was supposed to caulk one of the windows outside because it was leaking last time it rained. Oops. Forgot about it. I'll have to check it later to see if any water got in today. I need to make a trip to HD today, so I'll get some caulk later. The granite installers were here yesterday to measure. I have to remove the dishwasher for them (no problem) and cut one access hole in the cabinet top, but other than that the cabinets are prepped. They will be here Thursday to install. I made good progress on the drywall yesterday. Finished the last little demo and got the sheetrock up. I also fixed the gas line and changed the two electrical box faces that I needed to. I even got my first coat of joint compound up. It's finally starting to look like we're getting somewhere. That was about 12 hours yesterday with a couple of short breaks. Hope everyone has a great day! Matthew     |

Greetings! Cool and drizzly here, looks like a delightful day for golf. If this keeps up, I'm hoping for a cancellation and a nap.
Lookin' good, Matt! Stay dry, Gurus! |

It's moving right along, Matt. The best way to get to the finish line is to start.  I'm up and getting ready to get to it. Think I'll work on the shed today. I don't work on it everyday. Yesterday I did this and that kinda jobs because I just didn't have a lot of motivation. Press on, gurus. There are things that need to get done. If you don't have ANYTHING to do I'll be glad to put you to work. There will be none of this around here ...  |

Looks good Matt, I remember when my kitchen looked like that.
IIRC, there was more than one empty beer bottle on the countertop though. Been trashing on the race car, headed to the track for 3 days on Thursday. Looks like my Congressman is racing his GT1 Camaro this weekend. Had to change gear ratios for 2ond, 3rd and 5th. Always fun since the upper stack of gears is loose and has to be slid over the mainshaft that's in the gearbox housing. Hard to keep the gears from falling on the floor.

Got up this morning and found that some of the drywall mud still hadn't dried completely. We've had rain the past 2-3 days so it's no real surprise with the humidity. Hopefully later this afternoon it's good for a sanding. Then I can get a second coat on. Oh, the joys of drywall sanding...
