    Taking a truck load of the stuff to my parents. We have the usual Sunday visit over there and rain starts tonight/tomorrow morning. It's not quite burning season here but we're getting there.

    Watched a squirrel carry a green walnut something like 60 yards across my open yard. They must be good.

    Man I hate trying to fix things that are built by people that don’t own a level or can figure square

    And the framers that say its the finish guys job to clean things up n "make it perty"...its all getting covered by drywall...good enough! :hair:
    And I had a guy come in to do some plaster work for me...he says that you'll never see the 1/2"-over-1'-from-being-flat once its sanded a lil and painted...bull crap! A blind man riding by on a galloping horse could see that!!! That's not even good concrete work, let alone plaster!
    I knocked it off the wall with a hatchet and made him re-do it...second time was 50% better...only 1/4" over 1' from being flat :picard: I give up, take your money n git outta here, n don't come back! Its still like that today...I covered it with some fake greenery, so I don't get pizzed off every time I see it!
