I already got a second degree burn from the heat gun- Just a tip- If you heat something up to 1350 degrees don't accidentally stick on on your arm even for a split second.
Cheers to a job done!

15. Free of all contractors as soon as possible, please
They're swarming all over the place right now. Yes, I hired them, and yes, it's necessary so the place will be livable, but damn, it's quite the invasion of privacy, not to mention a theft of peace. Looking forward to finished renovations ASAP please...

35. Yes, but my point is not how it would be for you. They seem to have
worked out agreeable ways to function as a single person even though they have two uniquely different personalities. They are quite remarkable.

43. No privacy, ever, in any situation. Have to agree on a mate,
(suppose one wanted to marry a repub, and the other a dem?)


which side to sleep on, when to sleep, what music to listen to (one likes heavy metal the other likes classical), which career to follow (one wants to be an astronaut, the other wants to be a peace corp worker in Africa)

One, stomache, who gets to enjoy a full meal, or both half?

NO PRIVACY, EVER, IN ANY SITUATION...

I doubt, whatever you are reading publicly, that it is less than hell...

51. It has a parlor in the middle.
The four rooms go off at a diagonal. The front door is facing east to catch the breeze. I've never seen another house with a geometric layout like that. The connecting rooms on each side (at 9 and 3) have bay windows.

You can sit on the potty and watch the traffic go by from the bay window!! :rofl:
