Floors

Yesterday we put the second coat of poly-urathane on the hardwood. The first went on pretty well, but took much longer to dry than it said on the can, and further, had drips and thick spots which did not cure at all. Mrs. House and her father sanded and cleaned the floors, and then after the mineral spirts had dried, her dad swabbed another layer on top of that. I think there will be a picture set showing the exciting steps of this process soon.

My dad and Mrs. House's dad also installed our new entry area light. They had fun figuring out the status of all the wires crammed into the box, and also when the mounting screw went into the pigtail cover and touched the hot wire. Pictures of the light to come as well. Basicaly I am a big tease.

Tomorrow (Saturday) we are hoping to move in... we will see how that goes. Hopefully it will not be too bad, since most of our stuff has proceeded us. Today I am working late, so Mrs. House will be doing even more of the work than usual.
