My own contractor

Project 2: basement renovation

I decided to call some contractors and see if we could just have them finish it completely while we were away on vacation. One guy never got back to me, one guy said that he wouldn't go near it, because I had already framed some walls, and a third is booked until the fall. So I guess now I'm my own contractor.

Turns out, drywall went on sale this week, yahoo! 30 sheets of drywall I to the truck and down to the basement = 1200 pounds and sore legs and arms. And that's the ultralight stuff!

Living space is dry walled, just have to box in one vent. 

Project 1: launching the camera app from inside blogger sucks. Aspect ratio is wrong, and the view is small. Multitask to launch the app separate and use photos from the camera roll instead.

62 days of freedom.

Today was the last day of school before summer break, and was a day without students. In a short 62 days, we will be returning to work, school, etc. etc. 

This summer promises many projects, and a trip to the West Coast to visit family. 

Project1:  investigate blogging for my class this fall.

Project2: finish the basement

Project 1 status:

This post was made using the Blogger app (free) on my ipad. After signing in to my Google account, I had to create a blog using a web browser before being able to log in to the Blogger app. So far, it looks like Blogger has basic blog functionality, including the option to take pictures or use from the camera roll.
