Whenever it comes to autumn, there is a battle for me: cleaning up the fallen leaves ASAP everyday..
Some says I am stupid (the tree across my street is huge and has tons of leaves) to clean up everyday (instead of doing one time), but it actually saves my labor due to Broken Glass Theory…
Intended or not by walking pedestrians, I always find more trashes on my sidewalk when the streets gets messy with fallen leaves..:(
Although it doesn’t look much different on pictures, I tried to give a renewed life on worn out (smelly and turning yellowish) shower booth.
Few lessons learned-
This will never work with one set of can (2 coats) for normal Joe ๐ Anyone planning this fun activity, please be ready to buy 2 sets to be safe. (I bought an air spray and will add on top of this…)
Old wonky smell from shower booth is also generated by shower frame/door and other metal covers- replaced some old coverings but the next project for this shower booth is painting on shower booth’s frame/door
Finally repainted last piece of original paint left since I bought this house like 12 years ago..:) This required overcoming height phobia with ladder due to open space from the stairs.
Now finally reduced the colors of the interior walls in this house from originally 6 to 2…yes this was a house with daughters only ๐
After noticing very tiny ants around TV at every night, decided to test out the baits and saw shocking results…all gone in 2 days with maybe 50x or more captured vs seen per day…
This series has been a zombi story ๐ – always new issues popped up as I was hoping to finish this project. This time it was the deck boards under the post, lower end of post, and mouldings of the posts.
This was another tough series of tasks as it required some physics as it required some estimation of which part of healthy post carries the load and wiggling of the post to find the room to pull out rotten boards and insert new boards and re-adjust the post’s location to spread the loads to newly installed boards.
Plus – this required me to run 45 degree cut on making manual post moulding which was fun! ๐
