Over the past couple of days I have been taking care of the little things that needed to be done before I start taping and mudding tomorrow. Some of those jobs took more than I expected and others were just plain time consuming. It seamed like I didn't get anything done at the end of the day but looking back they were busy. Yesterday I put up the last bit of drywall that caps off the opening between the kitchen and dining room. I then put up corner bead, that metal corner protection piece, I had 9 to install. Six around the opening at the kitchen, two by the cellar door, and one by the front door. I also cut away the old window frames that extend out past the drywall in the bedrooms. I need it to be flush with the walls, so we can install our 4 inch trim later. Today I cut back the last one and moved two light switches by about 2½ inches, to make room for the door trim later on. While all this was going on today our neighbour dropped off a load of manure for ReBecca's (our) garden, to give it nutrients for next year. A trade off for some gravel they need, a good trade in deed. Today ReBecca and I dug up two trees and put them in pots by the front door for Christmas, (pictures later on).
