This was the second book in Robert McCammon’s Matthew Corbett series. And, much like the first book, this one was excellent. Also, like the first book, this one took me a couple of hundred pages before I was committed, but once I got into it, there was no stopping me.
The best thing about this series is that there are at least two more books in it. (I’m not sure if he’s writing a 5th, but I sure hope so.)
Highly recommended.
We’re done! We finished the caulking and cleanup this evening–it only took about an hour. Jake helped, too, so that sped things up a bit. I will post a picture tomorrow as we’re going to run over there in the morning and take one final look at it.
Ok, so we weren’t able to finish up everything this evening. Such is the story of my life. Brian did get all of the new plumbing fixtures installed as well as the remaining trim, so at least we can check those off the list. I finished about half of the caulking (there’s so much to caulk!). And, we have at least half of the clean up done. So, I guess we will finish tomorrow.
Things are back on track. Everything looked good this evening, so we were able to get the windowsill and all of the trim (except 4 pieces which couldn’t be measured for until everything else was installed). So, tomorrow, we just need to install those last 4 pieces of trim, caulk everything, install the new plumbing fixtures and clean up.
And, just like that, we’re behind again. We worked from home this morning and went to our rental property after lunch. There were a couple of spots on the surround that needed to be re-glued so we did that first. We also ran to Home Depot to pick up some more supplies (mostly trim). After that, Brian cut the pieces for the windowsill and we went back over there after supper to see if everything was going to fit. We need to wait for the tub surround adhesive that was applied today to finish curing before we install the windowsill, so that’s on hold until tomorrow. It’s only Tuesday, but it feels like we’re running out of time already. I’m hoping that I will have a different outlook tomorrow.
