President's Day Holiday - Wrap-up

I love three-day holidays, however, this weekend came with frightful weather. Friday was rainy, so they came in as soon as we got home. The morning was dry, but the wind-chill was 10 degrees. O boy.

We chose to do projects around the house. Skip was slightly 'off' in his right front and was better to let him take it easy.

We packed up the car, twice, for trips to the dump. When we moved we did purge lots of stuff, but we ran out of time; in the end we just had to get everything out of the house. There are boxes of junk that desperately need to be gone.

Lots of items are recyclable, so we stacked the car accordingly. Also cleaned out the flattened boxes from the shed. I feel like I've lost 500 lbs.!

On the way home we stopped by the BigOrangeBox, picking out colors for the 'mancave.' This is going to look fantastic! We also looked at floor covering, think we'll go with sheet vinyl instead of indoor-outdoor carpeting. I worked on house-wifey stuff, he mudded and sanded the drywall project in the basement.

Sunday the wind was howling, snow flurries throughout the day; cold, cold, cold. The boys wanted in before it even got dark.

Monday, the holiday, we ran errands in town, then worked on the basement project, wiping up the drywall mud dust, then priming the walls. Won't be long before we apply color to the walls.
