Wild and Wacky Wednesday

Well today is going to be wild indeed! Why, because that's what I want so that's how it's going to be. See how that works? It would have worked the same had I said, "Oh man, it's only Wednesday, what a crappy day." Now that I think of it, why do we always say, time flies when your having fun, by the laws of attraction wouldn't that make the day go quicker? How bout, the day is dragging? Why would you want a slow day to go slower? So if it seems like a day is dragging on why not make it fun. How perfect would that be? A perfectly slow, fun day. Try it some time, when you're having a blast, try saying, "Wow, this day couldn't go any slower." ;) Now on with the list for today.



Operation Organization Day 5:



Just to let you know, I have not been slacking. Monday I spent all day working, then scraping the bathroom ceiling. There were horrible ugly discolored cracks in the plaster above the tub,

AFTER

and Chris (Landlord) said he'd get if fixed. 

Let me say,"WOW" That was fast. Tuesday the painter arrived, was impressed that I did such a thorough job, and went to work. By the end of the day, the mess was cleaned, and the trim back up. So today would probably be a good day to clean and organize something in the bathroom. First on the agenda is the bathtub caulking. How's yours looking? This is a job that unfortunately needs to be done every few years in an older house. The better the job, the longer it lasts. I'm getting pretty good at it too. Did the cabin up north last year, spent a good hour scraping and digging, then used the precaulked bathtub trim. That stuff is pretty neat, but I don't think that's a product Chris wants me to use here. So old fashioned way it is. Here's the before shot.

 As this is a job you can't rush, tomorrow will have post the after shot. By doing a little research here's a link to where you can find quick tips on how to do it. There's tons of howto's out there but I found +Ron Hazelton to be the best video. Shows how to do it quickly and correctly.

 Make sure while you in the bathroom to check the fan for dust. Go through you medicine cabinet and toss expired meds. Don't flush them please, some pharmacies will take them from  you and dispose of them, or crush them up mix in coffee grounds and put in the trash.
