Buried Alive!

Okay, so smooth, white, clean walls don't exactly fit with the whole "dungeon" theme, but when you lift one of these sheets overhead to screw it into the ceiling, they're so heavy and awkward that you feel like someone's trying to bury you alive! So it is sort of dungeon-like, right?

For those of you asking how can Spencer work while holding big, heavy objects overhead -- well, I invited my friend John over for the task. He's 6'4" and had plenty of muscle to hold things up while I shimmied them into place and then set them with drywall screws. Two nights of sweat and labor and then the ceiling was 90% finished.

  3. I like the first picture too. Your progress is amazing. Thanks for your diligence. You need to be banished to the dungeon more often I think, just wish you could take some loyal subjects there with you, and get things done. You're doing incredible, keep it up!

  4. The canned lights with the finished pieces of drywall make it all look sooo fancy! Man! Really nice work, Spencer. Great job.
