We did all of our chirstmas stuff yesterday so today was a day to get some stuff around the house and shop done.

We where doing some last minute gift shopping and ended up a fleet farm.. I went to the paint department ready to spend 100 bucks on a 5 gallon bucket to paint the walls..

I left with a 5 gallon bucket of ocean blue "mistint" for 30 :)

Since the cleaner does not mind leaving their junk on my side, please don't mind it either. I'll talk with them on Monday about it.

The windows know what is coming and have already started sweating.

Tomorrows project is building the walls for the back room. You can see where they are going to go by looking at the brown tile. On the left it ends where the plywood floor begins. On the right you can see the line of wood in the tile floor. For some reason this unit has a raised floor in the back. I thought it was done at a later date but the bathroom floor is at the same height as the elevated floor.

Strange but where they use to have the wall works perfect for me. Just need to put it back where it was :)
 
10 mins from my house I love it. Let me know if you need any help at all I have Wednesdays and Saturdays off usually.
 
Wish ya would have called me dude!!!! Would have been so down for all that - I worked from 6a-12:30pm and I was totally looking for a project afterwards!!!

Bah humbug - I really do hate the holidays..LMAO :beerchug:
 
it looks like that vct tile could use a good strip and wax if you want it done i could get you a good deal on the cleaning

Yeah, it's showing it's age. but unless they can do it today, it'll be mainly covered up tomorrow ;)

I'm getting ready to make my trip to the old shop to get tools, Menards for lumber and the self store for the first load of tanks. :)
 
After hitting a brick wall on lease negotiations I started looking else where. I called my CC processor and asked them if they could give me the top 10 billing zip codes..

When they did they basically put a bullseye on Fridley.
 
Ok. Todays update. I am still running at about half power today. I made the rounds on Christmas eve sicker than a dog. Yesterday it almost killed me painting the place. Today, I went to menards and bought lumber to build the wall. As I stood there looking at all the wall options I went with peg board. This makes the wall functional :)

Wall on it's way up..

I also had to meet someone at the shop so I decided why not pull down a tank and get it moved.. Every build/move needs a cloudy tank shot.
