I installed one sheet of drywall! :D

There was some black mold, so I checked FamilyDollar.com for vinegar.

It only showed corn oil.

That's not vinegar!

Dollar General had it, it just wasn't as close.

I needed to put in a bunch more stir sticks--especially on the bottom.

I read somewhere to leave it 1/4" off the floor, so I stacked 2 sticks under each corner.

I put vinegar in a spray bottle and removed a bunch of the mold. I grabbed the dimpler that I bought months ago and fastened screws every 12" in the field and 7" on the edges.

I figured that I need to do everything I can to guarantee success.

Should I have glued it?

The dimpler failed a few times.

How is that possible?!

I pulled the screws and put them 1" away.

The stir sticks are 1' long and have ruler marks for 7", so that helped.

I came inside and had 15 minutes before my teleclient, so I figured that I would have a bite to eat, and it was already time.

That is the only client who acts like she enjoys therapy. She goofs around and when we finish she always asks to play games.

I didn't have the stir sticks to create the gap at the bottom.

For some reason I tried to find them at Walmart.com, but they only show 22" 5-gallon sticks, which are much thicker.

Lowe's was still open!

For some reason I pulled up the page on Lowes.com, but didn't realize they had doubled the price.

I swear that I had bought at least a dozen of these.

When will it end?!

They went from $1-2, but Home Depot still charges $1.50, so I will be going there.

I cannot find any on Ace's website.

They are the closest.

I decided not to clear out the shed, lay down the next board, remove the mold on the back, cut it, prop it up, and start driving screws at 9:30-10.

I will get to bed sooner and can start sooner?
