so many painting

[kellan_the_tabby]

plus a small bout of screwing things to other things, as see above.

All the gingerbread is on, & I’ve caulked the gaps where the boards didn’t QUITE meet. Plus I managed to get that hunk of plywood in place. I put the worktable right up against the back wall, put the coffee table I stole from the abandoned house on top, & it was the right height to hold the plywood in place while I got a couple screws in. *whew*

I thought I’d taken a picture of that, but apparently it didn’t stick. Alas!

The entire left wall is painted!

Plus the bottom half of the right wall. I decided to do that instead of futzing with the door, cos that’ll be easier to do in cold weather than painting. In the meantime, it’ll at least keep the rain out.

The tarp is fastened back down over the front of the tinker’s wagon. Tomorrow I’ll be painting over the caulk on the back corners & putting the tarp back over the back, so everything stays nice & dry Tuesday.

The weather’s looking to be cold for Christmas & a couple days afterwards, so I’ll be taking a bit of a break. Then it’s all doors, windows, & the roof!

If you want to see these posts sooner, & not incidentally help support me & my cats in our travels & such, the way to do that is to sign up as one of my Patrons for as little as a buck a month.

I’d REALLY like that.

*excited flailing*

[thewayne]

Kermit flailing?  Even unto that level?!!!

[kellan_the_tabby]

Unto that level indeed, I mean LOOK AT THE THING

... also it helps keep my hands warm.

There's an aikido warmup/limbering exercise called, excuse the spelling, tekubi fuli, which basically entails shaking your hands vigorously.  So why not!

[kellan_the_tabby]

Also commonly used in the drumline, where it is called 'flapping your hands around like a bunch of dorks'!

[thewayne]

Pretty much.

Wow, looking great!

What is the low opening that looks like a window (but low from inside), to the left of the door on the half-painted side?

[kellan_the_tabby]

That's the lower of a pair of windows which I had really _meant_ to put closer to the door but oops?

[cellio]

Oh, it has an upper mate -- now it makes more sense!

[kellan_the_tabby]

I mean it _could_ have been a cat door. >.>
