Color Change

Doing mostly wiring in the garage this weekend.  Ended up playing with the color I was using on the ceiling in the basement as a trim color and I really like it.  Too cold to paint much, but I did a test patch by redoing the trim above the garage.
Looks nicer than the blue I think.  Once it warms up I'll finish the paint on the garage, and update the trim (and finish the paint job on the house).  You can also see the lighting fixture that I added.  I converted this to use a 12v MR16 bulb, same as my landscape lighting, and tied it into that system.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath.  Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down.  Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad.  Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat.  Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish.  Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.

Paint

Had to get a coat of paint on before the rains hit.  Not completely sold on the blue trim, may due a dark brown or grey there instead, but a huge improvement over what it was.  Right now I only have one coat on, and haven't done the edging right, so it's a rough paint job, but it will tide the house over until I get a patch of good weather and can finish the job.

Figuring out a plan for the sunken area, cleared it all out.  Will likely need to deal with the chimney first.
