I had delusions of getting a lot of work done at the house this weekend. The problem is that I didn’t actually set a goal to accomplish by the end of the weekend.
This project started about 4 weeks ago. I figured that I would do a quick recap to keep track of what’s been done. To date the following has been completed:
1) Framing of two doorframes and a wall to separate our home into two separate units.
2) Drywall
3) Drywall finishes (cornerbead / tape)
4) Mudding round #1
5) Sanding round #1
6) Mudding round #2
7) Sanding round #2
Considering that I am only working on weekends and the rare weeknight, I’m pretty happy with the progress. This weekend, two of us worked for about 3 hours on sanding and it took me about an hour to clean up afterwards so I wouldn’t say it was a lost weekend, but it definitely was not as much work as I probably could have gotten done.
My plan is to take another stab at getting work done tomorrow night but, this time, I am going to make a plan. Tomorrow will be all about mud. I need to build out a ridge to smooth it out, finish mudding a drop panel for one of the doors, repair three holes, and touch up a few places that we got a little overzealous with our sanding technique.
That sounds perfectly reasonable for a Monday night.
