Amazing...

This obscure blog has been comment-spam'd! :-p

Well, it looks like the painting will have to be completed over the next night or two. We ended up repainting the doors of the laundry area. I think after the bathroom is done we will look into re-painting the other doors and trip around the place. Ultimately we'd like to re-paint the whole place, but that will take some time.

Labor Day Weekend

Well, it's nearly the end of a nice 3-day holiday weekend. Not so nice if you have to drive and pay such outrageous prices for gas! :-p In our case we didn't do too much driving. My brother and father came up for a visit. We went into town and had dimsum in Chinatown. Then we walked around a bit before coming back here. My brother and Dave went off to see a movie after dinner. Dad and I just chilled and watched TV a bit.

Yesterday, after we saw the boys head off back home, we did some groceries. Afterwards, we decided to get going with the painting of the downstairs main bath. So we went to the Rona to pick up a few things. Then we went to the Benjamin Moore paint store to get a few color swatches and primer. Once home, Dave removed all the hardware from the walls and started to patch up the holes. I'm going to have to think about what new hardware to use in the bathroom after it's been painted.

We primered the trim and the edges. We didn't get to primer the rest of the bathroom until today because the plastered holes were not dry yet. We repainted the door and trim instead. Hopefully we can get some color up later today.

Anyway, it's been a couple of weeks now since I submitted my CV to the other office. I really don't know how long it will be before I hear anything. That is, if I hear anything. Oh well. Must continue.
