Before and in progress, going to get new crown molding and baseboards because idk what the last owners did to them but it’s pretty ugly. Also never use semi gloss paint on walls its the fucking devil. Why did the former owners do that!!

Its so satisfying to finally figure out some weird issue/renovation choice from a former owner in an old house until you remember you still have to fix it but do it properly this time

Still haven’t painted the trim because i’m thinking i need to remove it and strip the layers of poorly applied paint from them, and floors will all be refinished later, but the walls and ceiling are done. On to another 4 bedrooms 😪

Threads is so depressing. i clicked on a post asking mainers who they think should run for susan collins seat and for governor and they’re listing celebrities associated with maine? Do they really not know of any sitting state level politicians like troy jackson

We re-use packaging our merchandise shipped to us in, sometimes that means I’m handing a customer their buttons in a bag that says “racists magnet” or “poop on fascists magnet”

Started a pair of colorwork mittens this week. I put off starting for a few days because I knew there were long float sections and I should attempt the ladderback jacquard method for catching floats but was nervous to try it. It seems like it worked out fine? Pattern is “songbird mittens”

Bat situation is resolved, cdc told me it was a low risk exposure because i was never actually in the same room as it (kept running into other rooms whenever it got into my current one) but we cant test the bat because my bf came home and killed it with a hammer. Sorry to any bat fans for that part
