Dead mice, cellular shades and laser levels.

.

When I was painting the living rooms walls, I removed all the light and outlet covers. That included the ridiculous switch on the right the previous owner had installed.

.

.

It went to the hot water heater which apparently she shut off every night. We never do that and I was tired of looking at it so I had the contractor remove the annoying red light. This meant rewiring some lines in the basement.

And the discovery of a corpse.

.

Poor little thing.

Trying to keep my husband from talking to the contractor …. while paying him $55 an hour to listen…. I found a project to keep my spouse busy.

.

.

Installing cellular shades on our new bedroom windows. He gave me the look when I told him that meant putting holes in the new trim but before long he was reaching for his hammer for some none too subtle adjustments.

This job took the better part of an afternoon..

.

.

And didn’t seem to bother His Lordship over much.

.

.

When my husband started chatted up the contractor again, he was asked to help with some laser assisted measurements.

.

.

And after the measuring?

.

More talking…
