well as a few of you know, me and my sister got a house together, i get downstairs and she gets upstairs.

i am in the process of scraping all ceilings downstairs of popcorn. it looks like it was sprayed 3-4 times. im halfway done but had to take a break from it this weekend so i was in the garage.


heres a few shots of the downstairs master bedroom ceiling

ive finished that one, a 10x10 bedroom and am on the front room right now.

i have the basement entry way and bathroom left to do. its not alot but its just a pain in the butt lol.


im going to get a few guys together, provide beer and pizza or something and get it done in a few weeks. atleast the scraping part. i want to go to a flat ceiling down there.

then after i get done down there, i am moving to the garage, it is unheated/uninsulated. i have not been in the garage to work on my car since november its been so cold in there. so i am thinking of dropping the ceiling, insulating it, and using plywood instead of drywall. because right now the ceiling is the roof line, so im planning on dropping it around 6ft at the highest part of it.

also am going to run new outlets to the other side of the garage.
