Living the Dream Year 4 Day 304 – The Wellington – Spackling sanding, spackling sanding, Spackling sanding and repeat

Year 4, Day 304, “Living the Dream”. Friday, 2/28/2025. The Wellington – It is a beautiful high in the 50’s sunny day. After a healthy breakfast,

the sanding and spackling continued.

Everything in the house is dusty even with the wind blowing the dust out the door. Thank goodness it is a warmer day.

I spent a little more time foraging in the attic. It is like going shopping, but less expensive. The sunlight shining by the attic door calls me in the mornings.

We picked up four five gallon buckets of USG All Purpose Joint Compound. We have used 14 in the house so far. We are estimating we will have used 24 buckets total when done with this house. The buckets of joint compound are $20.28 each.

In the last five days 1,250 feet of drywall joint tape has been put up. Also ordered four more gallons of Kilz2 all purpose primer. In one week the painting will start.

While Steve showers after work, I go to work sweeping and cleaning.

Things to ponder today! Have to leave you thinking.

Here’s a link to today’s Amazon recommendation: https://amzn.to/4hQIPgd 12 Black Wall Hooks: I just put a few of these up in my master bedroom closet. The perfect solution for hanging up belts. These are the sturdiest little hooks and look fantastic. Watch and see where they will be appearing next in this house. Great for hanging coats, hats, towels, cups, bags, etc. The list is endless – Use your imagination.
