Holy Sink!


It's friday, and tomorrow we have a few helpers coming to assist in demo'ing the walls and floors in the main house! Then I can get the walls re-drywalled and put the cabinets back in. Here we have 80% of the cabinets down and ready for paint. I am going to spray them, and then apply a tan antique glaze, and then on the uppers insert a wallpaper damask design. I can't wait!

We took the sink from the Main House and are going to set it into the counter in the Back House, since we didn't want to purchase a brand new sink for a renter, as it will probably sustain damage. It's sitting in the yard while I soak it in CLR and Comet. The previous owners really banged up their stuff! Nothing was ever cared for. I don't know how these people lived like this. I mean it...how did they not die of dysentary or E Coli? Everything is filthy. Even DJ thinks the sink is disgusting.





And, DJ really likes being outside! Here he is playing with the shovels. Meanwhile, Warren is playing with saws! He You-Tubed instructional videos on how to cut out a sinkhole and is going to use his circle plunger attachment and a jigsaw or maybe the reciprocating saw to cut the hole for the sink. We *should* have the back house kitchen completely done, hopefully tonight, maybe tomorrow. We have to patch some drywall cuts that the plumber had to make, so it depends on how long that takes. Back to the damn drywall. Ugh.
