No Disintegrations, A Follow-Up

So I've been a little bit busy lately -- but not busy enough that some work hasn't been done at the house.

Here's an update from my list as reported on June 18.

MAIN FLOOR TILE. Need to tile bathroom and foyer closet, and grout laundry room. Fix soft spots in the kitchen.

UPDATE: Bathroom is tiled. Need to do the baseboards and then grout the entire assembly. Had hoped to get further along with this project, but I spent half the day trying to cut the bolts holding the toilet to the floor until I have up and bought a Dremel. The Dremel had the bolts cut in less than two minutes. Should have started the day buying the Dremel.

ROOF. Finish ridge cap on the upper portion of the roof and replace shingles on the porch and kitchen window pop-out. Also haul off the discarded shingles. Yesterday’s gullywasher also reminded me I need to clean those gutters out. Maybe if it’s not raining this evening . . .

UPDATE: The ridge cap is finished. We've hauled off one load of shingles, including the shingles that were on the porch. I've got about a half-hour's worth of work to do on the porch roof, and it'll be done. Need to do the kitchen pop-out, then clean the gutters on the lower portion of the house.

The other items on the list, well, haven't gotten to them yet. But chew the list down a bit at a time. And get the visible stuff done. Should be able to finish the shingles tomorrow (maybe get the gutters cleaned out). Then the tile in the bathroom and laundry room get grouted.

Then Saturday, EAGLE PROJECT!
