1 a.m. triple stipple whipple

This is how we do it. We're bringing back the late night force of labor- 3 a.m. runs to giant eagle, literally gun-ho until we pass out across the stair banister or develop a really bad case of the midnight munchies...we have a backstock of Ramen on hand.

Thank god, we're young. Yeah, we were whining like...we're getting too old for this.

Poor poor Liam looked like he was going to really pass out, so I only made him wipe off the mud from around the edges of the wall and ceiling while I stippled. We had gone to a show the night before, so we were both running on little sleep.

So, as it went, we were able to stipple the ceiling up until the area over the staircase, which we will finish tonight. We did not want to risk working that close to the staircase in our condition.







the new light fixture we had installed in November was tricky to work with. It's all one unit, so only the globe would come off and the rest of it is hanging by the wires. We duct taped it up there and wrapped around some masking tape to help keep off the mud, but I can already see that it'll need to be cleaned up considerably. I still don't know how I'm going to paint around it, but I'll figure something out.
