"His mother was a mudder ... his father was a mudder." At least Kramer (from Seinfeld) said something like that. In my case I'm not sure that either my father or mother were mudders ... of course I'm talking about drywall mudding ... but, today I spent the majority of my day mudding! I won't say that I'm good at it or fast at it, but when I was done at least something was accomplished, and in the big scheme of things that is what matters most.
We are now one day away from finishing up the mudding and moving on to the texturing. The past couple of days we have received a shot in the arm from a church member who was a professional sheetrock guy (is there a title for that job) and he is just plain FAST with his mud and knife! But, we have also had TONS of others out helping get the job done and I think it is coming along very ... VERY well.
But, do keep praying because we are getting closer to our Sept. 26th deadline every minute. And, because of that this is about all I have time for...
The Journey of a Beginning Farmer :: As a child I spent most of my life in town living with my mom, but whenever I visited my Dad and his side of the family it was on the farm. From my earliest memories I have always wanted to be a farmer (except when I wanted to be a cowboy). Now, I am trying to fulfill that dream. This will be a journal of that journey :: my research, my joys, my frustrations, and all of the things that go along with the beginning farmer.

Ugh, don't texturize. It's a pain to clean and with kids, nie near impossible.
I was thinking the same thing ... especially if you're talking about the walls.
But, it's not up to us I guess.
