heidiiiii Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I am on a vaca of sorts myself. The kids are home from school and I dont have to rush around to do this, get this, hurry before they get home stuff. I am going to pay more attention to the E. Row this summer. I have been starting the basement and I think I will wake up here some more and get to it. I am glad you are spending your vacation the way you like..

KathieB Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Oh, no! Bec, I'm worried you haven't checked in yet today with a progress report. Hope you haven't glued yourself to the siding strips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beccas1963 Posted June 28, 2007 Author Share Posted June 28, 2007 Kathie, So sorry I didnt check in yesterday Busy doing siding is all. For the Lines it took me a day and a night but it was worth it. Less anxiety...... I think lol. Last nite while watching ghost hunters I sanded the edges of a lot of siding so I can just go at it. Still slow but I moved the house and table so I can see the tv and the computer this morning. My goal for today is to get to the top of the first floor windows. I put a pic up in the gallery.

KathieB Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 The siding is looking good, Bec. Aunt Bea will certainly be a stately lady, at least on the outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beccas1963 Posted July 1, 2007 Author Share Posted July 1, 2007 Thank you everyone for allowing me to show you what I did on my vacation! Alas tomorrow I go back to work But I am here to tell you I have made my goal by getting the siding up to the tower!!!!!! I be so proud. Almost like a new mother lol I think Pic in gallery. What have I learned.... I have learned: 1. Tape get extra cause you will use it. 2. When marking your lines look away once in a while cause they start to look crooked and when you look back they will be straight. 3. Make small goals and celebrate them. I drew smiley faces each time I did a new goal. 4. Have fun! 5. Corner trim will hide the edges. Bec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
