Sunday

Well our vendors pulled out early.  I think her sister left on a 6:30AM flight, so they had to get her to the airport an hour before that and were to leave from the airport.
  I think Marg was up at the proverbial Crack of Dawn and ready to rock & roll by the time I got out of the feathers.  Had a good breakfast then went down to check on the place.  It was cleaned right out and left much as we expected.  There were some surprises in finding some damage to the walls & cupboard doors that we never saw at first visit.  These will mean a bit of extra work, but nothing we can't handle.  We also have some questions about the floor, as it may need some leveling before putting the laminate in, but will not be able to tell until we take the carpet out.  That will likely happen in the next day or two.  So we took some measurements, then off to Home Depot to pick up paint and paint supplies.
  Back at the trailer, we had lots of company.  I tried to work while Marg gave the guided tours.  I was masking and prepping to paint the ceiling.  We were concerned where to put the television and she came up with a plan to remove part of the cabinets to make an empty wall space.  This idea gained favour among the viewing public, so I said she needed to decide as it affected the painting of the ceiling.  The next thing I was doing was to take the cabinet out.
  In the end we got ourselves ready to paint and that will be the agenda for tomorrow.
  Finished up for supper, well went to happy hour for a half hour, then the ice cream social.  All the while responding to many questions about our project and status.
