We were back at it this weekend after a 7 day cruise on Harmony of the Seas out of Galveston that took up the past couple of weekends. Friday was extremely windy all day, even by Lubbock standards, with up to 84 mph gusts at the Lubbock airport. The conditions were terrible, but the winds were mostly at our backs, so we decided to make the trip. Rick averaged about 20 mpg in his van, and I got 46 mpg in my Rav4 even though the first 20 or 30 miles were not just a tailwind.
We finished touching up and sanding the sheetrock, sanded the living room and laundry room ceilings, repaired cracks in the living room ceiling, prepped windows/floor/electrical plugs & light switches for painting, put on sheetrock paint throughout the house, sprayed weeds in the yard, and cleaned up fallen branches and the old TV antenna in the yard. (We applied more sheetrock paint to some areas on Sunday after the photos were taken, and I never got a photo of the laundry room for some reason.)
It was a productive weekend. Next week we'll texture the walls. All of the floor and window prep remains in place, and we'll have to figure out the logistics of renting an acoustic sprayer for next weekend.
