Day 283 - CC306 emerges

It was a painting weekend - CC306 made its appearance. CC-306 is the Ben Moore colour code (name: Cable Knit) that for our trim. The doors look pretty good in it, don't they?

Today I sanded the primed doors, and painted both sides of the 1 3/4" thick doors, and one side of most of the 1 3/8" doors. I don't think I really like the paint - it is so thick it takes a long time to spread it around. Note that it is a Ben Moore colour, and not Ben Moore paint.

Upstairs, every window was dripping with condensation - a result of the drywall mud drying. I opened a couple of windows a crack to let in some cold (relatively dry) air.

It's pretty obvious that I will be collecting on the bet with Dave. I am thinking about possibly revising the wager - maybe increasing the stakes for Dave. Will see if he goes for it.

Looking ahead for this week:
- buildouts of the window jamb extensions starts
- garage doors arrive (to be confirmed)
- drywall mudding completed (I hope)

Next weekend Freda and I are renting a panel van to move some fragile stuff to the house.
