I started working on the Airstream yesterday. Everything was taken out of the bedroom. EVERYTHING. It is completely empty in there. All the linoleum is gone from the bedroom, and I'm trying to get to the rest of the linoleum out of the rest of the place.
I need to get the stuff I cleaned out of the bedroom completely out of the airstream, as it is currently stored in the living room. My friend Mickey's husband came over and helped me with a lot of things. First, he explained to me how to repair that rotted wood in the back right corner near the electrical box. But...the bad news. The leak has to be fixed first. He gave me some ideas where it might be. It isn't the window in the back. We don't think, at least. Since it appears to be on the right half of the window and over to the right under the second window.
There is a dent over on that side of the airstream on the outside. I'm going to rip out that panel on the inside and pound it back out. Get up on the roof and seal up any seams that might be leaking up there. Finally, I'm going to reseal that window which might leak be leaking. Won't hurt to reseal it even if it isn't leaking. All of this after what feels like a long derby practice this morning. It wasn't that long, but I had a migraine this morning and it feels like I got hit by a truck after one of those.
Oh, also....I apparently have dirt daubers nests in my AC "squirrel cage" and maybe my furnace. But now I know how to clean it. I might could finish that this weekend. I do often tend to over extend myself. There is a lot of work to be done.
