Replace the pantry door, I figured.
It'll be easy, I thought.
Jason and I can finish it fast, I prayed.
Anywho...Day 2 in progress.
Yesterday we got the door, the supplies, parts, other random shit to replace the door. As we started the deconstruction, we realized how goddamnfuckingidiotic the previous owners were. Instead of using normal little brad nails to hold the random pieces of wood into the other random pieces of wood, they used what Jason referred to as two penny nails. I call them motherfuckingrailroadspikes.
Much beating the shit out of wood took place. One piece of wood, of which I do not recall the purpose, was a mere 4 inches wide and 8 inches long. To hold this gi-fucking-gantic piece of wood in place, someone decided that 7 nails in lengths varying from 2 inches to 4 inches were required. I also recently learned, by the grace of the previous owners, that you must use a nail every 4 inches to hold up drywall.
So, at the end of Day 1, most ridiculous crap removed, door installed.
Day 2.
During the Day 1 destruction, we noticed that every time we hit something, the lightbulb would flicker. I decided that I must replace the lightbulb and install a recessed light in the ceiling. Fucking stupid idea. Three hours later and lots of drywall removed, holes drilled, electrical fucked with...the light turns on. I think I also completely insulated my lungs as the shit falling out of the hole I cut in the ceiling was constantly inhaled.
Due to the completely worthless drywall in place, we decided to use paneling to just cover that shit up. Off to the store to get panels, shelf shit, and other random things to finish up. We get about half of the panels in, some of the shelf holder shit, and times up. Jason had to go hang out with Number 3. He will be back later. He gave me homework.
Homework did not go well. I did get nearly all of the missing drywall installed. Looks like Tetris took a shit in my pantry. The "measure here and cut this and install it here and it will look great" thing...oh dear.
Measured wrong, cut wrong, used the same piece to maybe get it in the other spot, measured again, cut again, fuck it...At'll do!
Time to relax before he returns and hell starts again.
