I'm well-acquainted with the mess associated with drywall work. Drywall dust gets everywhere.
I learned today there is something far, far worse, however: the black, dense, silty, kinda-like-printer-toner residue from the gaping chimney pipe where a former oil furnace once vented.
By itself, it's nasty. In a laundry room, where disconnecting the washer inevitably led to a little water on the floor, it's a nightmare. And that was before I tackled washing the walls and such.
I may very well have nightmares tonight. Nightmares of the world being overcome, one sooty black shoeprint at a time.

That sounds horrible! Hope you didn't breathe in too much of that shit.
We were wearing masks and goggles, for all the good it did.
But it made for such a cute picture of you two! :)
I can only imagine the nasty mess that made!
Wow. I hope to never have to clean that much in my lifetime EVER. I am good at tidying up a place...but the cleaning and getting dirt in my hair and under my nails...not a job for me. LMAO!
You sure clean up nice, babe.
ooo the horror!!!
you know...at home depot you can get those disposable overalls i think. look in the paint section.
o and the pic was adorable.
No black lung for y'all! Glad you chose masks.
I'm still jealous of the destructo-fest and casa-suburbia.
