Happy New Year! 2014

January 18
Installed master suite hallway light fixtures. Tried to install master bath light but electric receptable is very shallow and screws are too long. Will have to take home and cut down.
Installed base moudling in 1st floor bath. Floor and its unevenness causes mitre joints not to line up right - note to self in future take floor angle into account and cut mitres.
Nanette continued to work on taping kitchen ceiling and took down 1/2 of the corner angle on steps

January 12
Bob cut out sink in the 2nd floor guest bathroom vanity.
Brought vanity home to re-finish because of the cold temp at Trevanion.
Bob installed fan/light in game room.
Got IRIS back up and running
Nanette painted trim for 1st floor bath and worked on mudding ceiling.

January 11
Bob started to cut base moulding but found the compound mitre saw (10") was too small for the job as well as for crown moulding. So of course, he went to Lowes and bought a 12" DeWalt compound miter saw and portable table for it $400. WHAT POWER!
When he returned he cut thebase moulding (rough cuts on lengths) so Nanette can paint them before installing.
Nanette spent day mudding the ceiling Kitchen.
Tons or rain yesterday and today we found the natural path the water travels on the front 40. It isn't right. Bob marked where the stream needs to go and this spring he can dig a trench so it will run into the existing stream.

January 5
Working again!
Our plan was to work on the 1st floor bathroom but temp inside was 34 degrees - too darn cold to work! Decided another day would be better. Went home to get warm....

January 1
Celebrated New Year Day by working.
Started off by laying new flooring in the 1st floor basthroon.
Also started mudding kitchen ceiling.
Put dehumidifier in front basement. The humidity was 85% since the fans do not operate less then 40 degrees.
