I woke up at 10 30 today cuz Dan was calling me. I had forgotten to give him back the keys to the new house..so I had to take them to him. I was hellla sore in the arms..I think from the monkey bars. How sad is that? I got the cats together and we went over to Woodinville (the house). I painted the trim for the exterior of the house, and some other boards but I duno what they were for. Then Dan and I carried in the new front door. I think it weighs nearly 700 pounds! I literally got blood blisters on my hands carrying it from the garage to the front of the house. My mom had me try to get wall paper off the kitchen walls. I tried one spot, and ended up ripping through the sheet rock on the entire wall. We have to replace that whole wall. Either Im a horrible and impatient wallpaper tearer, or that wall paper is a bitch! So Dan decided that we should rent a steamer to rip off all the shit instead of what we had been doing, which was mixing laundry detergent and water in a spray bottle and spritzing the wall all over. I went out in the back yard for like an hour while Dan went and rented the steamer and it heated up. I was juggling the soccer ball in the backyard, and I saw that there was also one of those MINI soccer balls that is like a bouncy blow up thing..so I thought it would help my skill if I juggled that. After like 5 minutes of doing that, I accidentally kicked it over the fence into the neighbors yard :( So much for that. lol . Shalia showed up to help.
I know. SHALIA CAME AND HELPED. It is a freaking miracle! lol, (Shalia is my sister, who doesnt like to do work, actually I think she avoids it at all costs, so I was amazed when she showed up today.) She helped me rip the wall paper off a wall for a couple hours. Okay, so 'ripping wall paper off' sounds really easy, but in reality..it is a WORK OUT! lol. You have to use this little round thing with spikes on it and rub it all over the walls until there are millions of tiny holes all over the place. Then you get the steamer and hold it on one spot (the steamer itself covers like 1/2 of a square foot) for a minute, and then rip the top layer of paper off, then hold the steamer there again for another minute, then get a scraper and scrape off the glue paper that sticks to your fingers and everything it touches. Multiply that process by 9000 for how much wall paper the fucking crazy old owners of our house put in. Seriously, its probably MORE than 9000. We have vaulted ceilings in the kitchen, and a dining room, and both rooms have at least one whole layer of wall paper on them. Then the kitchen had a trim around the ugly wall paper. Oh god, I have to upload some pictures of our remodeling when we are done so you can understand what Im saying. This is turning into a whole new house! Anyways, I spent the rest of the day doing wall paper. It was HORRIBLE! From 1-8:30. Sept I took a 30 min break to go pick up dinner from pizza hut :) veggie lovers stuffed crust. Yummy!
Tomorrow is payday! And Presidents day. Guess what that means; my mom doesnt work :'( so she is going to be at the house all day again. UGH! Ok, Im hella tired and sore and shit so Im off to bed..thinking about a special somebody :)
God I love this crush!
