I'm moving to Boston in August to take care of my sister for three months so I'm really trying to get some projects moving.

Last fall I promised my son id build him a new shed so yesterday I started the demo. Black mold and tons of carpenter ants.

How long should it take one person to build a shed?

You know how you say, “Eh… I’ll just do it myself!” and then 6 hours into it realize it’s a way more massive job than you thought? Yeah…

Pretty grim looking 10 day weather forecast here in New England. Cloudy, scattered rains, highs in the upper 50s (like 14.5ºC) throughout. Hate it when the spring time weather pattern gets like this. So depressing. Not really what I need. The sun came out for a bit yesterday, so the doggos got soaked up some rays on the deck. I think you can see in this picture why I need to replace the decking. Should I go pressure treated, composite or cedar/redwood?

Got these 3 boards at Good Wood and cut and sanded them for a built-in upgrade project.

I’m working on caulking my windows with the seal and peel. Lort! ☠️ It has a glue-like stench. I’m probably higher than a kite up in here. I’ve done my bedroom and am half done with the office / craft studio. It’s easy to work with and seems to be doing what it’s supposed to. So fingers crossed!

These aren’t painted, attached, or caulked. But it’s pretty easy to do a one inch wrap like this. And it doesn’t get in the way of the closet door.

Husband and I designed the new bath layout on called . We used the original tile we chose for the walls & floor in the .

I’m gonna take apart and temporarily store my dining room table when I de-decorate. I rarely use it, and this space is where I do my cutting and painting work for my . Which I need to get hopping on.

Plumbing photo of the day: water conditioner, now with 3/4” pex connections replacing the small diameter washer hoses. Better flow and eliminated some seepage. I hate pipe thread. I hate it I hate it I hate it forever

I’m replacing the carpet in the house with luxury vinyl plank (LVP). Just replace the hardest stairs. Feels like the glue cured well, and looks great!
