susandennisThis grad student isn't quite what I expected. He's 59 and looks 69 and walks with a limp. But he did scramble up the ladder so I'll give him that. But he will not shut up. I have used up my entire month's worth of unhuh and interesting and nice and unhuh and interesting and nice... and I'm over it. And he's not half done yet.
I baked up the rest of the banana chocolate chip cookies earlier and he spied them. I explained they were an experiment and not very crispy and kind of weird but he was welcome to as many as he wanted. There are none left. And he told me twice that they were very good.
He's cleaned the ceiling fan and, honestly, did a better than called for job of it. Now he's fixing the cabinet hinges which are very fiddly.
Finally, he's done with all of it. And, he really went above and beyond. He spent a lot of time loving on Biggie. But, it's all done.
It was here for nearly 2 hours (seemed like 4) and wanted to charge me $80. I had guessed it would be $200. So I paid him $120 and we are both very happy campers. Now I need to clean up stuff. But, yeah, punch list punched!
