Bathroom is painted, although I had to go over quite a few areas. I threw that roller cover away - new paint needs new-style roller. I think the nap on the older roller covers is just too deep for the new-fangled really thick paint. There were lots of places where the new paint was just a mesh. And I had to go over almost all of the cut-in edges, which probably means I need a new brush too. Sigh.
Shower door is up. I don't like doors on a tub-shower combo, but J doesn't like shower curtains. I am not really happy with the high stepover into the tub, either. Someone is really confident that he'll never have trouble stepping over a high tub.... The shelf that I bought for the bathroom is OK. It's a bit smaller than the rack that was there, but as that one was full of crap because J never cleared it off, that may not be a problem. I still haven't found a storage system that will work on the closet floor, but I've only tried one thing so far.
One problem with J's projects all being upstairs is that his cruft is creeping out into the rest of the house. There are piles of cruft everywhere. And he's spent probably 4-5 hours a day with K nearly every day this week -- I think Tuesday he was home all day, but other than that.....
I heard a toad trilling last night. I guess this means I really should clear some debris out of the pond. And pick up branches - we've had some windy days, and that always means branches in the yard. I put the heated birdbath away, and hooked up a hose to the E faucet. If we get an extended freeze, it's all my fault. :) (My sister was under a blizzard warning yesterday at 4F. Of course, she's in western Alaska.)
DB is scheduled for his COVID jab on Tuesday in Ann Arbor. I may wind up taking him in, because J scheduled K's for the same day, and DB doesn't want to drive a stick-shift home from his jab. He's only driven it a few times, and has only driven a few times in the last year, so....
