Shelf it!

Been working on the shelving and paint

Are you down with PPP? Yeah you know me.

Most folks reading the title will be lost, but that's ok, its a lyric from a 90s rap song. No worries, just trying bridge the generational gaps. So,PPP. Pre Paint Prep. Yep  just finishing up the garage to spray Three of the four walls. Soon to show the shelves I've built!

Wildlife interlude.

Just getting ready to pant the garage. Boring photos. So you get the local wildlife.

Mission Control: We have Moon rock.

Ok, now I'm comfortable in sharing a fault that I have. I've come to the conclusion that I have NO concept, understanding, or idea of interior design. Especially choosing colors. Now I do understand most marketing concepts and admire some of them. However, home paint companies and interiors designers must meet at a secret trade show (in Vegas of course) to come up with the excessive colors and names of said colors. I wanted a simple grey paint for the closet in the shop. Ooh no...... "sir, we don't have grey. Now why don't you go over to one of our computer controlled, multi-functional, light correcting paint tables and choose a color that most reflects your inner being. Oh, and sir, be sure to chose the appropriate hue, hardness, and finish." ........And now my closet is Moon rock.  Which looks a hell-of-alot like grey!  

Rant finished, time for a Sunday beer. Cheers.

Final Inspection: "Follow the Paper Trail"

Friday, the building inspector came to the site, for what I had hoped to be the visit where I could get the little yellow, officially stamped, piece of paper that is final approval of the construction phase. Those folks that know of the year I've experienced, will know that my luck is just not that good.  The experienced inspector had a good look around, made some useful suggestions,  and then took out his metal clad,armored notebook and proceeded to check off a long list of items. Until, "Do you have your Site Engineering report, schedule D subset c. Produced only on the Third Tuesday of a leap year?" I frantically start flipping, sorting, and rustling through my paperwork to make it appear that I knew what dialect of English he was speaking. The very last page of the two inch stack of "Official Paper" I discover Engineering Report Schedule D written in the blood of a baby Sasquatch! However, this is not the form needed. No, apparently, this engineering report will need to be transcribed on parchment from the Dead Sea Scrolls.....

Embellishment aside, all that is required for the "Final" is a form with the engineer who approved the building plans, signature. So.. A journey on the paper trail I go.

So instead of a picture of Me grinning, holding a magical piece of paper, you get the Morning picture of the ferry.

You're A Knob! Ok, just a lever.

Can a door knob look fast? Oh yeah it can!

On the Grid

Inspection has been moved to Friday. Hasn't stop production. Still tons to do. We are on the grid now though.
