Evening guys.
I have plane to pressure wash the house, clean & install screens, and wash windows this weekend.
And I need to get the mowing deck on the tractor because the grass is getting green and before I know it the wife will need to cut it.

Doing pretty well, you?

Had a good day today and am really looking forward to the weekend. Tomorrow morning driving to New Hamster and buying a trailer, then checking out a new trail with my parents. Then my niece has a birthday party on Sunday. Trying to really enjoy my last spring/summer in New England!

The old floor is up, and a coat of primer down on half the floor. Now waiting for said primer to dry, then laying down some tile. Hope to get a good amount of it done tonight. Won't be able to do the little bit under the washer and dryer til I can get somebody to help me move them(stackable units).
