Huh? I have a Blog?
Well, as usual, I get distracted from my distractions. This time by work. Yeah, right. I had to go back to work to bring in a paycheck however meager, because I am taking way too damn long on finishing the vortex. I go to work during the week and rest up for my next weekend venture into the mold remediating endurance competition. Work seems to be a little respite from the drudgery that I have fashioned the rest of my life into.....
I am not very impressive with my speed, am I? I have done about one third of the mold and mildew wipe down. It is tedious, it is heinous, it is odious. I am using a spray bottle, then wiping the dead mold off the joists above my head with a rag. The rag starts off white, but after a few swipes turns black and so gets thrown into a bucket of borax water. When I run out of rags or have a crick in my neck, or I cannot contemplate continuing without becoming dead drunk, I consider myself done for the day. Lovely.
Tomorrow I get to start again. It seems that I should be able to get it done in a few hours time, but it just doesn't happen that way. I have to work around the plumbing, the electrical, the nails and staples. What looks like a 5 hour job is taking about 50 hours. Or longer.
