I had help with the driveway and after the sealer dried I saw that it needed a second coat. I had a full pail of sealer left and used that. It dried a different shade than the rest. I looked and found a date two years older than the other 6 pails. I bought another one and finished the second coat. Now my tendonitis is really acting up. The basement stairwell got a coat of paint and a new light at the top of the stairs. I never even considered that until I looked at it through the eyes of a buyer. If I could mix cement I would try and fill some of the low spots in the basement floor.
I finally found a manual for the Cub and it explained in better detail how to level the mower deck. I got that done and lowered the deck to just above scalping and trimmed the grass in the areas that are not covered with leaves..
The school is going well most of the planes are being covered and should be ready to fly by Thanksgiving.
A new roof in a few weeks and it's almost done.

Fixing stuff.
After painting the milk room I looked at the basement. The ceiling was untouched since we moved here 45 years ago and who knows how long before that. I used the sticky tape on the patches I had made and filled a few more smaller holes. It took a couple hours to paint the ceiling. It looks better. Then my focus turned to the dark room. I had painted the walls a few months ago but the ceiling was in need of paint and filling. I bought some wall board joint compound and attacked the basement stairwell first. Then I mixed the remaining partial cans of paint and started on the dark room. I had enough paint to get the ceiling and the cement knee wall that goes around the room. That looks better too.Now I'm looking at the floor. That could be a problem.
As soon as the drizzle stops for a few days the driveway will get a coat of sealer.
The little house across the street has a for sale sign on the lawn again.
