Out of time
The paint doesn't show up as the right color on my laptop -- it's Glidden's "shakesphere" which is a sort of a sage green. Needed a second coat. The floor repair took days. Arrgh! Vacation is over. I go back to work tomorrow. Even taking the extra week was not enough.
Left to do:
1.. Paint the corners and the edges of the walls where they touch the windows.
2.. Wipe the floor with mineral oil, Varnish the floor, sand with #220 grit with the little electic orbital sander (3.5x9" pad). Wipe down, varinsh, sand, wipe varnish.
3.. Let dry 3 days and allow the girls to move back in.
4.. Varnish (as above) the oak (gotta purchase first) baseboards and door trim.
5.. Install trim
6.. Finish restucco on the outside before the rainy season.
But it looks fantastic, and with the insulation it should be a LOT more better.
