Sonny and Doug spent the day finishing putting plywood on the shop walls.  A couple of coats of paint and some throw pillows, and I’ll be ready to move in.  Eric worked all day taping and mudding the main level ceilings, getting most of them first-coated.  Ran the AWG 8 wire from the mechanical room electrical panel over to where it will feed into the heat pump.  Built a set of brackets to hang up all my bar-, Quik-, and C-clamps.  First step in getting the shop organized.  I left for points north at 9:30 to move Alverta to her new, hopefully temporary, abode in the Burlington Heath and Rehabilitation Center.  Also visited Home Depot and Lowe’s for a case of primer paint and the shelving unit tracks and brackets for the pantry and knickknack shelves in the upper hallway.  Got back to Fern Lake at 3.  At the end of the day, Doug and I spent some quality time cleaning up much of the s-storm that existed in the shop.
