Productive Weekending

Had a very productive weekend.  I don’t know if it is just cause it is the New Year or if I have actually turned over a new leaf.  I got the transmission out of the Volvo. It would have been put back in but I found out that my pressure plate was not going to work and I am going to have to get the correct part.

I also started prepping a door in my house for paint/stain. I started scraping the paint from my bedroom door. I put in maybe 8 hours worth of work and got the entire door jam scrapped. It still needs some sanding but I made good progress.

Started with this.

Ended up with this.

I think part of the reason that I am making such good progress on everything is because I rediscovered books on tape… on mp3. I have started to “re-read” books while I work.  Right now I am working my way through the Harry Potter books. After that I think I am going to do The Wheel Of Time.
