What the fashionable renovator wears .... maybe not ...

As I was going through pictures from my last post, I came across a bunch of photos of me during the renovations.  I was laughing my ass off and just HAD to share them with you.  I hope you find them as amusing as I do ...


If anyone is drywalling a ceiling, this is the absolutely BEST tool you can rent.  It's a lift that makes drywalling ceilings a snap!  Well, maybe not a snap, but a heck of a lot easier.  There's actually a 4x8 foot sheet of drywall over my head, hence the hardhat.  All the fashionable drywallers are wearing them these days ...




The latest in gloves ....




So maybe not the most ladylike pose but I had put together so many freeking drawers by then, I was pooped!  Aren't those shorts just to die for!




Barry ... being silly, go figure ...



The best in cold weather gear .... it was BLOODY cold that day ... what a trooper!




What every good landscaper should be wearing ... notice the hat and gloves ...




mr gangsta insulator...




.... and the Mrs.



I was never so happy to rip something down as I was that trim under the window ... and did you notice the latest in great eyewear???



the latest in painting gear ...



This was actually my first meal cooked without a kitchen ... perhaps not the most flattering ... but all I had to cook with was a kettle, an electric frying pan and a microwave.  We were without running water for 5 months in the kitchen.  The upstairs bathtub became our sink.  Needless to say we ate out and ordered in A LOT.  But that's the topic for a whole other post ...

I hope you enjoyed the fashion show ... it's late and my sense of humour gets more warped the later it gets ... see you tomorrow!

  1. I absolutely adore the fact that even a fashionista like yourself was willing to get down and dirty for the sake of renovations. Love you Sandy!! :)
