Nov. 21st, 2010 12:40 pmBy's out working on the new door to the greenhouse, then insulation on the east side of the house. Still no word from Salvage Guy, and at this point all I wxpect is a phone call full of excuses and promises to finish in spring. Putz. It'll be done by spring.
After getting some time to really look at the parts of the herb shed that SG started back in September, By's decided that'll have to be taken apart and done over as well. One of the main corner poles, that will eventually hold up part ofthe second floor and the roof, is at least 15 degrees off plumb. And it's nailed that way. The floor joists are all crooked and inconsistent, because SG was in a toot and his carpenter was mad at him, and it's just badly done.
**sigh**
So of course, this would be the time By gets a call from one of his side clients, wanting to start cranking work out. And from his former boss, R, who wants him to get some of her inventory out of storage and clean it for sale.
Am still trying to resist major prject ADHD--so many things I want to be working on, but with the kids, next to no time. Not for the fun, detailed pieces, anyway.
The Sock Report: only a couple hours' knitting left on the mother-in-law sock, then I can weave in the ends, knit the decorative flowers for them, and be done.
No progress on the Sooper Sekrit Socks, because I've been working on the others. But they're next. And then a couple quick pairs for the kids, and length that pair of knee-highs for The Miss.
I should make myself a list of things I want to finish by Yule. Maybe it wouldn't seem to overwhelming that way.
