Watch it transform from hell hole to hovel.  It's amazing what a little paint n paper will do... ok and some tiles.

Day 181

Posted 9/8/2020

Day 181: Tuesday... Project x was leaving home. It started out as a good day. We managed to get the trash and recycling out... Feed ourselves... Hurt a lot from the days past activities... Same old same old. Then sidekick showed up... We loaded the truck, had a few coffees and then went to take the project to its forever home. I didn't have my ppe so I waited in the parking lot and did paperwork... Hmm... Now where are the adoption papers that go along with this venture? Not on my phone... Not in my messages... They must be here someplace... Let me ask someone here. Ok this it where the day goes to Hell in a fucking hand bag. What do you mean the adoption papers were never signed? Oi fuck, just light it on fire and walk away mate. Destroyed my equipment, busted our humps and got boned... I paid the boy anyway for his share of the work. Got home just after dinner... Felt sick about the whole thing. Maybe I can make picnic tables out of the leftovers... Anyone need a picnic table or a Muskoka chair? Heather hot home, I made chicken stuffed with ham and cheese to make me feel better... It didn't help as much as I had hoped. Sure it was good but not good enough to fix today. We watched a movie with a lot of people killing each other... That helped some too. Lol. Wait, I thought today was over... Apparently we have a fire in the house. Smoke alarms are going off outside everyone bedrooms... No one is waking up... I checked the place out, seems to be a faulty alarm, I took 3 of them down and cleaned them out with compressed air as per the directions an set out to testing them all... Not like I was going to wake anyone here. Heather eventually got up and brought down the boy to sleep in our room. So I've isolated the bad one. It's under my pillow right now... It goes off about every 1 to 5 minutes, it is 4 years and 4 days old and I'm now pulling it's heart out. Meh, there is another still in the wrapper... Let's see it says to move the label and permanently turn it off by moving this lever that just broke off and did nothing... Fucking garbage. Ok I got this:
