Yesterday once Chris showed me how to apply it along the seams (earlier I was covering the nail holes), I started motoring along. I probably got about 1/2 of the room done (minus a few places Chris already did), so today between going to my dad's for Doris' birthday, I should be able to get the second coat all done.
The plan (of course I always say that and it rarely sticks) is to paint the kitchen sometime between Friday-Sunday of next week. Chris says Saturday, but it's his BIRTHDAY so I really don't want to do that (Chris is so lucky his birthday is the 4th of July, he never has to go to school or work on his birthday, lucky :) ).While I worked on mudding, Chris worked on putting up new drywall in the laundry room. The previous owners had put up some strange tile up on the ceiling, so earlier in the week Chris took it down
I also worked on testing out the THIRD round of stains (although there is only 4 this time)
After a hard day of work Chris, my dad and I went to the A's game. One of the guys I work with had a gotten a deal on Diamond level seats and his wife had 3 extra tickets. They're regularly $250 each but we got them for $50! They're the seats DIRECTLY behind home plate on field level (Wendy saw us on TV, hehehe). There is also ALL YOU CAN EAT food and the servers come over to you and take your order. We definitely made up the price with all the food we ate. For fun, after the game we totaled up how much we though all the food we ate cost, and we're pretty sure we got a good deal :) Chris alone had 5 lobster sandwiches (although they were about 4 bites). I had a lobster sandwich, buffalo wings, two sodas, two waters, Dryer Dibs, and A LOT of candy (we stashed a bunch of it for movie outings, hehehe). The A's fell behind early (what else is new) but nearly came back in the ninth scoring 3 runs! They still lost by 2 though :( The game clocked in at nearly 4 hours! Good fun was had by all, and it was a really great experience.
