Upstairs We Go...

 

We are officially calling it quits in the basement,

for now.

Spring is here and it's time to do a couple of projects upstairs,

 before summer hits, and then we head outside.

 

Here's the summary:

 

Terry wanted to drywall in the laundry room,

but I said no no, not on the priority list. Maybe next year.

 

 So I painted the studs and everything else,

 with some leftover paint I had, and it looks fine for now.  

 

Terry found a nice piece of wood to finish the basement stairs.

He's putting coats of stain and poly on it.

 

Some more black paint on the trim...

 

I finally painted the entryway to the bathroom...

 

It's all done, for now.

We still want to put in a ceiling,

but no no, not now.

Maybe next year.

 

There's the final piece that finishes the staircase, and it looks great.

I still need to add one more coat of black trim paint,

and Terry wants to stain the hand rail,

 but those are little jobs we can do on a rainy day.

 

There comes a time when you just have to stop,

and make a decision that you cannot do all the jobs you want, 

 and you must take a break for a while, and come out of the basement.

 

Oh my gosh, I remember saying the same thing last year at this time.
