The old house is starting to really shape up.
We rented a lift for 3 weeks, oh my aching check book, to be able to reach the high parts. There are many high partssssssssss.
The old siding had been covered and preserved for 50+ years by lovely (yeah I don’t mean it) aluminum siding. The siding was removed. The nails and stapled had to be each one painstakingly removed. The holes had to be filled with wood putty and sanded, the cracks all had to be caulked and then paint. Not just one coat of paint but 2 coats of primer and 2 coats of beautiful finish coat.
She’s not completely painted yet but WOWZA is she looking pretty. And thank you JESUS the lift leaves today.
Love,
the girl who should think twice about wearing a dress during renovations. I swear the paint WILL NOT come off.
