Drywall, drywall, drywall….
Finished up the drywall around the fireplace. Now that we have drywall up in the living area it looks way different. The transformation has been slow but it looks and feels so much better now. After having problems getting accurate electrical box cutouts in the drywall when doing the bathroom, we tried something different in the living area. We bought a Blind Mark kit from Calculated Industries. You stick the magnet doohickey in the electrical box, hang your drywall, then use the other magnet doohickey as a template to mark where the box is. The opening for the box is then cut perfectly. The only real downside is that you have to remove the outlets/switches to fit the magnet doohickey in the box. But it does work as advertised. We’re starting to work on the new drywall, taping and mudding the joints and screw holes.
Having new insulation in the walls makes it noticeably more quite and helps regulate the temperature. We’re betting on the windows and insulation to keep the inside comfortable in both the winter and summer.
The downstairs bedroom got some love. We insulated the outside wall and what we could of the wall between it and the utility room. new drywall was hung here as well.
To continue our quest to make the cabin efficient, we replaced the recessed light for the bottom of the stairway with an LED version.
Genny’s friend’s grandma was moving out of her house in Pville and needed to git rid of the washer and dryer so they were offered to us. Since we want a washer and dryer in the utility room eventually, this was a pretty good deal. We just needed to bring the trailer down and go pick them up, which we did. This meant we also needed to clean up the utility room so that we could fit a washer and dryer in there. With the two appliances in there, the room seems a lot smaller.

There are many other advantages when purchasing a secondhand mobility scooter. You’ll likely get the same warranty and support as the original owner and that is a significant benefit in the long-term. It’s also cheaper than brand-new models. You’ll save money and avoid the expense of hundreds of dollars for a used mobility scooter.
