Baseboard is my heat! But yes. Or cove base, I guess?

I should slap paint and floor in upstairs bathroom. About 21 square feet of floor and it was poorly done stick on linoleum when I bought. Hasn’t gotten better. Would be an easy improvement. Not sure what I’d pay down. Going to finish the rest first. May throw some leftover paint and trim in too. All walls and ceiling are ceiling white.

Punch list is almost to punch list size.

Cove base other than kitchen done. Bedroom done and about to put furniture back. Living room ceiling in progress.

All electrical issues dealt with other than a bad GFCI i found (test button does naught). Short was a nail shot through a wire that I found and gained access to the second place I looked. Dead outlets in the garage was just a bad connection.

Chased things backwards needlessly a bit since I forgot that ground and N are common from the box. Oops. No harm done, just an hour or 2 wasted.

Kitchen cove base, 2 big ceilings, and a lot of wall to paint. Few more things to move out to Joe, I imagine. And a lot of curtains to wash. 3 known window actuators broken.  Not fixing without request at $50/ea when someone may replace the windows.

On the other hand, 300sqft garage still still has 7’ ceilings.

What if you tore down that garage and built a bigger one with a better, wider driveway?  is that even possible in the city limits?

I realize parking will still be an issue for your big rig and toys, but what if you had a bigger garage?

Parking my hauler at home is not negotiable, and that's not going to be able to happen in Brighton.

a paint gun to the cab box and wheels i think would have 95% avoided your parking at home issue lol

There's nothing to argue here, Mike's outgrown this home.

Surprised I haven’t had a letter yet. Joes been home for about a week right now.

A town car came down the road Thursday, saw him on my way out noontime.

I’m certain it was Ed I saw.

Wonder when these turn from form letters to something else?
