sometimes, you like to throw mud on the walls

shawn got all the mudding done (the first coat that is) in the living room today. It looks good so far. The neat thing is that we have finally really gotten the mudding technique down. It's pretty awesome. The mudroom and front hall way are the first areas that we really seemed to get it down to the point that it looks really professional, as in no lumps or scratches or anything. It looks awesome, we're both impressed. This whole housebuilding experience has been pretty incredible. It really does give you the feeling that you can do pretty much anything, if you work slowly, patiently, well, and using your best knowledge - and if you don't try and get too ridiculous about things! (I mean, we couldn't build a castle with a mortar foundation and turrets all around it!) Anyway, it was a good day. Now it's time to build the fire and make some risotto for dinner! Thanks for reading!
