Taking shape

There's no pics but the kitchen is taking shape too. the staggered wall cabs are down and will line up with each other now. The old paint is whited out and a color is waiting to be applied tomorrow. There's some mold on the wall that adjoins the main house so we've been scraping and bleaching it, the rock is drying out tonight and will be touched up and finished tomorrow, the walls would be perfect white but the step between the old and new sheetrock is taking a lot of mud to smooth out, we're halfway through a five gallon tub of mud and we only hung two pieces of rock! Well i ripped off the rock that was sitting on top of the old exterior sheathing which was left in place during the remodel that closed in that part of the house. the sheathing has had a couple coats of mud and now we'll have flush walls all around instead of an awkward 1/2 inch step in the wall by the kitchen door. I attempted to re-wire the hall light so that the 3-way setup will work properly but now it does not work at all.

The two bulbs in the kitchen were burnt out, i think that LED bulbs we have aren't suitable to be used with a dimmer switch, though it was not mentioned on the packaging. And the plug in the bedroom which acted like an off switch for all the bedrooms and lights when something was plugged in to it, has been replaced.

the garage side of the wall is sheeted in OSB. as long as it's a storgae room this is the best surface. once we get flooring in I'll pop the OSB off. insulate the wall, put it back on and rock over it. That should make a pretty good sound proofed wall and provide a room in the house with some decent privacy. I'm gonna seal it with some of this soy sealer that Diz recomended,


that'll stop the bits of pressed wood from flaking off and catching clothes etc.
