House Work




This weekend was all about housework. We've been taking a hiatus form the major work that's needed and have been only maintaining the day-to-day stuff. This list continues to grow, it has not stalled like we've wished.

What I did:

  • Replaced some boards that the Moron Fence Builder damaged.
  • Sanded the furniture that the Moron Home Owner (me) fucked up with RAW linseed oil instead of BOILED.
  • Installed a small sprinkler system in the front garden.
  • Spread redwood mulch on the gardens, front and side yard.
  • Drill hole for gate post in driveway. Fitted hole (with help from Don, the ever-helpful neighbor) with stainless steel insert to prevent further concrete damage.
  • Shored up side yard access panel with cross-bracing.
  • Strung party lights on deck.
  • Broke pedal on bike while riding at the Marina. Rode fucked-up bike approx. 1 mile. Walked Bike approx. 5 blocks.
  • Took bike to repair shop.

Jenny did this:

  • Toiled endlessly on removing stain on woodwork in living room. Spending 7 hours to complete 1 window's worth of wood.
  • Exercised great amounts of patience in above.
  • Breathed in fumes of Citrus Orange Stripper.
  • Planted herbs and other plants around the house.

All around a busy weekend.
