Cabinets...


Ready?



Sanded. I am never doing this again. This is some bullshit.





Listen you fools. This is why you CLEAN you shit. I think that is 10 years of just FILTH.



Professional Stainer.

Hello New Door Bye Bye Old Cabinets


Fresh?


Please forget how these look.



Gross. Peace.



Start sanding. Like my sander? Custom cut 2x4 with 60 grit paper. Boss.



Wipe them down. Lean them up. Let them dry.



Margaret's Staining Station. Too lazy to rotate.



Clean?



Halfway.

Is 'Bitch' not the best song right now? Video is insane. Remix is hot. Why couldn't NBA come up with this song? In case you do not remember NBA:

Let me continue from the last picture post.

My new walls in my room:


Where is my door?


Closets are done.



New Floor, New Paint, New Window, New Sill, New Recessed Light. Brand New.



Last time you will see this Jail Cell.



Bye Bye Door.



Cmon now, wood finish back? Black is back. Wait for it...

Just dropped off money for the door to be swapped. $60 for work at 11pm? Not too shabby.

This is what is replacing it:



Yep, security door. Thanks Ms. Song.

Gotta wake up in 7 hours to help Peter move. FML.

You Got Feminine Tendacies Like A...

So it is almost over...our stint with the Step Brothers. Will I miss em? Probably not. Will I miss the cheap labor? Probably. But you get what you pay for. It has been a huge roller coaster and I don't want to wrap it up yet as I am not one to judge a book until I close the back cover. Who am I kidding? This kid don't even read.

Before I end this BITCH [that song is so sick, go dl it.] Let me give you some before and afters:


Wack Stairs.



Dirty Stairs



Wood Stairs.



No Stairs.



YOUR Dream Stairs.





To Be Continued...Home Depot...

Exhausted.

3 straight 12 hour work days. Knees are tender. Hands are lacking motor skills.

Goodnight.

Last time you will see the living room unfloored. Upstairs is completely done.

Thank you J, Kindra and Margaret. Have tons of pics but camera is in car. Here are some mobile uploads.








We got beats. Night.

Money Ain't A Thang. That's Why I Spend It.

What is it that they always tell you? Get yo mind right? Then get yo money right? Shit. Before I type another sentence, I'd like to thanks J & Kindra. They spent a total of 18 hours combined with me today and helped me get through the hardest part of our floors [3 doorways and 1 staircase].



Thanks. Yes that is a snow heart.



Big Boy Toys.


Last time you will see that carpet. My floor like your Final Exam, hard.



Did some progress shots of the hallway [the hardest fcking part to floor, btw]



Bye bye carpet, hello carpet pad.



Bye bye carpet pad, hello wood boards.



All the carpet, carpet pads, staples, baseboards, ants, shit stains, coffee spills J and I removed. Anyone want it? $1 per sq ft. Get at me.



Non mechanical tools of my trade. You saw the big boy toys [courtesy of Peter Tong, sorry I didn't make it to basketball. I was too caught up and wanted to get this shit done.] in my last post. Don't front.



I had to show this. This is why my floor will look better than any floor you've seen. I cut under every fcking jam, sill, frame, board. I cut a slit so that the flooring can slip underneath and look flush. You know I stay fresh.



Bye bye wooden floor, hello floor padding. Yeah I know, it is upside down. Please do not judge.



Hello floor. Tell me that shit ain't change your life. 


This fcking corner has caused me more heart aches than my match.com winks. I hate this piece of shit. J and Kindra stayed an extra hour while I played softball to work on this. I will see this in 7 hours. Hopefully this is fly when I wake up. 12 hour plus day. I can't feel my hands. Goodnight.

Thomas' two rooms pics tomorrow. Got to keep you on your toes.

Free Lunch: If you can complete the lyric in my title, I will buy you lunch.
