Living Room Work Part 43

We were finally able to get to painting the ceiling today. There has been lots of crazy going around and we have been in the middle of it. But we buckled down today and made a serious effort to do something. 

We got a coat of primer up on the ceiling. That allowed us to evaluate the quality of the mudding and sanding we have done thus far. For the most part, we were happy. There was a particularly troublesome area where two corners of separate dry wall didn't line up very well. Susan did a great job of laying over and hiding it. But we had a lot of areas like the one shown below.
You would think this would have stood out like a festering puss laden open wound with maggots slithering about. But it didn't...until the primer went up.

So we completed the painting and after a reasonable dry time, Master Mudder Sue went to work to perform her plaster magic.
Hopefully we will get to some sanding tomorrow and then assess our next step.

We're getting closer.
