Flooring? Siding?


Debra from Olde Cape Cod

Oh my, it's going to be a hot one here today! 80 degrees and only 10:30. Visited DH in his shop this morning and he was busy working on some shelves for someone. I ended up with a whole handful of trimmings: blogentry-3022-0-34922400-1432996699_thu They're not all quite the same thickness, but I figure I could always sand them down after gluing. I was looking at pictures of the Neverwas Haul last night and noticed that part of it has wood siding and is banded in riveted metal...this new bit of cherry trimmings might work well for that. Will look through my little cans of stain for something I can use...DH has a few too that he doesn't mind if I borrow. I think I will cut them in half lengthwise, they're a little too wide looking on the house. Just tried them out, the pieces are long enough too! Yay! blogentry-3022-0-23755900-1432997220_thu The Captain seemed pleased so I think we are good to go! He just found out that the Lovely Marilyn broke up with her boyfriend! He even started twirling his mustache! This can only mean trouble I'm sure.

Oh, how convenient to have a carpenter for a husband. Since I'm the so-called handy man in our family, there's not much hope for me getting cool scraps unless I make them myself. tee hee hee

Captain should be pleased with the upcoming siding. He must like beautiful woods since they were prominent in his former life. 

That moustache twirling can't be a good sign, especially combined with that secret letter. Watch him carefully and chain down the building!!

The promise of banana bread has distracted him for awhile...but he knows I try to make monthly visits to see my mom and he watches me carefully when I pull out my suitcase. He probably won't like that I'm going to stain that pretty cherry gray, but hey, I'm the only one working on this thing!
