Reading Nook Update

Rebuilt the reading nook this weekend.  Doesn't look much different, but had to be completely torn apart and redone.  It's now full length so that the single futon fits correctly.  This allows you to lay down completely.  Also, the ledge and bookshelves are recessed, even with the mattress, which makes getting in and out much nicer.

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

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.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower.  1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan.  Tested and approved by the inspector.  Next is upper pan and then tile.
