See, okay, it takes me way longer than this. I mean, part of it is the length of time it takes me to do the actual coats. But I've been waiting much longer than a few minutes between coats. I don't need to?

Not with a quick dry topcoat. Can't help with bubbles. I get them rarely, usually when I need to thin my polish.

Ok, that's helpful. Will try next time. I think the bubbles have to do with the tremulous way I'm applying. As I get more efficient, I think it'll improve.

So I'll use the Diamont with the 3 frees, but does that go the other way, too? Do I need to keep using the Seche Vite on the cheap poisonous polishes? Or can I use the Diamont on them?

In other news, Clean All The Things progresses apace. Except I staged everything into the living room, cleared out the closet, got the ladder from the shed, climbed up into the attic with the attic flooring panels and.....I bought the wrong size. Oops. So now all the stuff that needs to go up in the attic is going to have to wait until I get the right size panel. Criminey.

Also? It is hot up there. I should have insisted on the ridge vent and solar fans when I built. I can still do the solar fans, anyway, but sheesh. I should do something. The insulation looks pretty good, though.

Someone talk!

um.

Takes a deep breath

This isn't news to most of you, since I've been posting about it other places, but I got diagnosed with breast cancer last week.

Wow...hopefully treatment will catch it early, Perkins.

It looks like it has, so far.

Timelies all!

Good luck with the treatment, Perkins.

Once again, my love and support coming your way, Perkins. Do you want to talk about the course of treatment you will be having, or would you rather not have to get all medical on our asses?

Perkins, tons of easy treatment ~ma headed your way.
