Now that is love

Will's Grand-daddy came all the way from Kingsland and spent the weekend helping Will's daddy fix Will's room. GD as he shall hence be called, endured sleeping on the couch, a house without coffee, and a son that isn't so good with the drywall repair. All in all the ceiling was levelled up, or down, but I don't think sideways, textured, and some electrical work was accomplished.

GD knows his stuff, but his sons use of pink drywall compound had him a bit confused. I told him pink was the new black, that and the stuff should dry white. Funny thing though, when I primed and then painted the ceiling it reactivated the pink dye, and my ceiling turned bright pink for a few hours. Mary was a bit concerned.

I primed the walls and and am ready to start painting the room a nice shade of pastel green and pastel yellow. Painting should be finished by this weekend and most of the trim installed as well. Then it's down to new carpet and we should be finished.

Thanks Dad, for more than you'll ever know.
