House of the Rising Slime

We have spent the week doing little projects all around the house. We are repainting and slightly rebuilding our screen wall that hides the space between the garage and the carriage house where I keep loads of crap. It badly needed a paint job and some rebuilding.

Susan did some plastering in the back guest bedroom. We have a small access hole in the ceiling that lets me get into the attic. I pretty much tore it apart a couple years ago because it wasn't big enough to get stuff up there. I re-framed the hole and Susan put up some drywall and patched what was left. It looks pretty good now.

The rest of our time has been spent cleaning as we have some out of town guests arriving on Friday...and God forbid that someone might see the house in the usual sloppy style in which we live. Of course, I'm comfortable in our usual sloppy style and would allow it to get sloppier if not for someone who is not sloppy...or comfortable with it...who shall remain nameless.
