so when i came home, _christylynn_ and karen were spackling the ceiling and the walls and plastering stuff.



a lot of the damage to the ceiling was because because water had dripped through from the bathroom upstairs. of course this is because the caulk has rotted out. which means, that in order to paint the living room, you need to recaulk the tub.





nothing's ever as simple as it looks.

Yea for home improvement, where nothing is as easy as it seems. Not if you want to do it right anyway.

Incidentally, feel free to drop me a line if you need any help with any of these projects. I'm not un-handy and I'm often bored out of my skull when sitting at home.

OMG feel FREE. I am SO not handy and I have SO decided that I hate this type of thing (ie, manual labor). Some ppl might be coming over to help this weekend (sat. and sun.) if you feel so inclined. :) Any help would be much appreciated. These bones are TIRED.

My Sunday's all booked up, but I could probably pop over sometime Saturday afternoon-ish.

You got a time?

I need to recaulk my shower and get a new escutcheon for one of the handles. Hopefully the landlord won't try to pin the rot that has resulted from him ignoring my compaints on me. I think my billing him for the work will help.

Or maybe I need a flange and not an escutcheon....
