I started working at around nine, I ate lunch for about fifteen minutes, then I stopped around half past six. I had lentils for lunch because I was doing a fasting.

I got the platforms in and all the tread, as well as the balustrades and some other variously protective things. It still needs risers and odds and ends, and a custom cabinet at the top would look good. But the main purpose of this push was to prevent any two year olds (you know who you are) from taking a tumble down the stairs. I think we’re safe in that regard. 

Tomorrow the computer work begins again, it’ll be nice to take a break from all the sanding. I was quite dusty by the end. But there’s something nice about being dusty. It made it easier to trim my beard.
