Today is texture day. The guys got here about 90 minutes ago. One is mixing mud, the other is doing a final light sand of things. Carpet guy just left. He was taking measurements, but the guy looked like he was in his upper 80's, low 90's and wasn't very friendly, but hopefully he got the measurements right. Of course, he couldn't tell me how much sqft we had. I guess that I should just measure things myself. Hard to ballpark a cost between different carpet stores without knowing the amount of carpet is needed.

Tomorrow morning we are going to prime everything, and then we are going out of town that afternoon and will be gone until Monday night. It doesn't look like we will get to any painting until Tuesday. I am going to start in the theater first so that we can get moving on risers and the stage before they carpet. I told the old guy that we would be adding them, but he just gave me a grumpy look like he had no idea what I was talking about and that he wasn't happy about it.

We'll see how it all turns out.
