I've had a bad cold the past week so I haven't up to too much. I slept most of the last two days. 

I've been doing more work to the hallway.  I used a heat gun to get most of the paint off. Today I purchased a new respirator and a belt sander. The belt sander did a great job when I tested it out. I've never used one before but did remember it's important to hold on to it or it will get away from you.
