    That room will make such a difference for you guys. Tough break on the truck. But you ripped the Band-Aid off and it is behind you now.

    Sorry about the loss of the other truck, but you did get a good truck in the end. Very odd that they don’t have low range. I would never have to look for that myself.

    It's really coming together.
    An oscillating saw would make short work of a lot of those drywall cuts.
    Much easier on your muscles than using a utility knife, or hand saw.

    My wife and I almost had a similar experience in Kentucky back in the 1980s. We went to a dealership and told the salesperson we wanted a 4 wheel drive truck. He showed us a truck and accompanied us on a test drive. We left and told the dealership we wanted to think about the truck for a bit. One week later, we came back to the dealership and agreed to purchase the truck. We were getting ready to sign the papers when I asked a question about the 4 wheel drive. The finance person said the dealership had no 4 wheel drive trucks on the lot. Luckily, we found out before we signed the paperwork. I don't know if the salesperson misunderstood that we wanted a 4 wheel drive truck or if he was trying to take advantage of us because at the time we were young and recently married. We were within a few minutes of purchasing a 2 wheel drive truck we did not want. Fortunately we were able to walk away from the deal and later purchased a 4 wheel drive from a competing dealership.

    So sad you had to experience such a loss but I'm happy you have a better ride now and one that suits your needs. Hubs has a 2005 2500 diesel that we baby because it's such a workhorse. Praying you get as many years out of yours. I always look at a vehicle based on what it pays me. Can it get the work done...If it can, then it's an asset and it's worth it.

The room is looking good and cozy. It is way brighter already. Light walls make a room bigger and brighter. Your ceiling will look great after its up. Hugs from Santa Barbara. 🤗😘😎🌹🍷🙏🐐👏🫶

    You two are incredible with what you can accomplish. As to stress, it is a bugger!!! The misery is that it affects you physically and seems to come at us like arrows. Believe in yourself that you are strong and can handle the crapp that will come your way in life. I believe you two were right to step away and go camping. Good way to re-regulate your body.

    Katie, your symptoms are very similar to what I have experienced for 25 years. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and prescribed Cymbalta (duloxetine). It has been a life changer. There’s a very common stress, pain, depression cycle and Cymbalta breaks that cycle.

    I was holding my breath as you guys were removing the window, hoping that it didn't shatter when it was flexing. just didn't want another accident befall you. BTW, I hate doing drywall more than any other house project. What a year, newer truck, new power shed and solar array, finished the bigger barn, added the addition, got most of the fascia and soffit work done, wow. Your energy and work ethic is admirable to say the least, stay positive, you have all of us sending good vibes your way. Chevy has really gone downhill IMO, happy halloween!

    When I cut outlets out of sheet rock, I put a framing square on the floor. And make a mark where the outside of the outlet. Then measure up to the bottom and top. Then put the sheet rock up. Use the line on the floor which you marked on the floor.?..measure up and cut it out. Perfect everytime.

  • @peter-hr1gl

    two things about drywalling. You score the drywall on the smooth side, not the rougher backside. To cut out spaces they make special tools to make that easier or use an oscillating tool (I personally don't like those though). A cheap drywall cutout tool in the US is under $25 and would work for outlet box cutouts, window cutouts, door cutouts, etc. Even if you only use it once and sell it on marketplace it would be worth it since you can't rent one due to your distance from a rental place.

    With the truck, if you plan to keep it a long time, I would suggest getting it professionally oiled inside, out and under to help prevent rust. I have two friends that have had to scrap their very costly 2018 and 2019 GM trucks due to the frame being rusted away prematurely to an unsafe condition. It is a major issue on GM trucks used on salted roads, since about 2017. Your truck's frame may disappear fast if some type of rust proofing is not done. The drywall looks great!

    Congrats on getting truck situation ironed out! You ended up with a WAY more capable truck! She’s a beauty! 1 suggestion: Check out some stuff called Blaster Surface Shield, it’s a lanolin based undercoating that you spray on ALL of the metal components underneath including the frame. It will save that truck from rusting to death. Re-apply every 2 years. Should take about 6 cans to do it. I do my vehicles here in Minnesota with it to save it from the salt. Awesome product similar to the more popular brand called Fluid Film only better. 👍🏻🇺🇸🇨🇦

    Sorry about extra comments... 😂😅... It is very common for women to internalize our emotions, anger and frustration to the muscles, tendons, etc in our bodies. 8 agree with another sub that suggested checking out "fibromyalgia". Take good care of yourselves and each other. When you get a little older you will appreciate putting each other first - and your animals of course!!❤🙏❤
