I’m trying to motivate my folks to renovate their house, so I figured what better way to convince them than to do a reno on the bedroom I’ve perched in since I moved back in with the olds. All my belongings are now boxed up, and my room stripped of everything but the mattress and PC. There’s a strange acoustic to the room that wasn’t here before. My awesome, amazing friend L is trading me his mad painting skills for a super delicious lunch I’m going to prepare in return. He’s so good to me! Truly! Steak for Paint. It’s a deal I can dig!
Today, I’m steaming the rest of the wallpaper off and filling and sanding. All that boring crap that comes before the good stuff. I’m a day or two behind schedule because the weather would have turned the bedroom into a steam room if I’d persevered in the heat. Thank god for 24 degrees and a brief reprieve from the exhausting sun. Wish me luck!
