I haven’t watched this yet, but I like this guy he has great info and it’s about drywall, so I’m linking it here.It is amazing how many types of mud there are associated with sheetrock.
(Guess who's been doing some reading. Rhetorical.
Thank you very much! I'm working up my nerve to do the dining room.I haven’t watched this yet, but I like this guy he has great info and it’s about drywall, so I’m linking it here.
If you’re doing the whole wall it’s easier than patching. That way you have nice clean lines to mud over.Thank you very much! I'm working up my nerve to do the dining room.
Alas, it will mostly be patching. A few new areas, but piecemeal.
Then make straight cuts! Or just take out large sections.Alas, it will mostly be patching. A few new areas, but piecemeal.
Large sections? Ouch. That might mean doing the whole room!
Aren't you the one who told me I could handle a floor sander by myself?I mean, if you like bumpy walls and doing lots of odd seams, don’t let me dampen your fun.
Oh, yeah, well no bra in those situations is a given.The most important part of doing drywall is not wearing a shirt or bra under your overalls.
Got your big girl panties on do you?
) a true lady understands the importance of gardening.")
Bugs and critters gotta eat. They sell flowers, herbs, and veggies at the grocery store—Mother Nature's a rude beyotch. Just put out potted plants and don't worry about digging up the yard. Besides. There are lots of people who want to make a few bucks who'll do all this for you anyway if they're getting paid to do it. Do like Bob Marley...Don't worry...Be Happy.My Grandmother was a lady. As was her mother before her.
You know, the southern kind. Big, flowery hats in the spring, afternoon tea, woodworks through the church, and gardening.
One of her many isms, was that ladies gardened.
She often said to me, "Little Endless, (she called me little endless
I know nothing of gardening. Naught. (I'm not sure what happened to my parents' generation.
Gardening, however, is required to a certain extent in this ongoing project. Mostly I've been making a hash of things as I learn, which is why I've been procrastinating digging up nasturtium bulbs to overwinter.
I don't wanna. But I'll be mapping out an ordered garden in that area next fall and my window is closing. Soon the leaves will completely die back and I'll have no idea where to dig, meaning I'll lose those plants.
Today. Today, I hoisted baby shovel and set forth. There appears to be no baby shovel emoji.
Things I have learned:
-squirrels like to bury pecans under the leaves which makes it tricky to find the bulbs.
-a lizard will jump on, and cling, to your face the minute you sit on the kneeling pad.
-the previously no-cloud-sight heavens will open within fifteen minutes to deluge you with rain.
There is a reason gardening has died out.
Mother nature is snotty.

That's your kink, is it???All these years and you'd think you'd know me better.
I do nothing the easy way.
You know . . . there may be more truth in that than I care to admit.That's your kink, is it???

My backyard currently has a fence on either side of a giant tree and the fence is bulging out on both sides.I could, I suppose, fence up to the tree on both sides, but then . . . hmmm, what are the ramifications for that long term, as the tree grows?
