DIY Day: Crawlspace Rejuvenation, Part II of II

Monday: Cut and install the remaining drywall, while explaining to Maia that you secure the ceiling pieces by wearing them like a turtle shell and drilling over your head.

Tuesday: Spackle the gaps caused by your earlier poor measurements. Quick dry it with a portable dehumidifier then sand it all down.

Tuesday: Apply a layer of primer and then use up the can of paint most likely to rust out in the coming year (Creamy Beige, last used in the living room in 2012). Paint with little regard for perfection, reasoning that no one will ever look in this room ever again.

Tuesday: Cut the remnants of carpet not savaged by mouse poop to class things up just slightly.

Wednesday: Move all of the junk back into the crawlspace to be forgotten, at least until the next themed holiday arrives.
