Room Reno Days 2-4

So here's how the room renovation has gone:

Day 2- Sand old spackle, apply new spackle, wait 24 hours

Day 3- Sand Old spackle, apply new spackle, wait 24 hours

Day 4- Sand old spackle

As you can tell, it is quite a process.  I have experimented a bit with how to fill in the strips.  On one of them I did the whole process including drywall tape.  The rest I've tried various shortcuts.  We'll see how it turns out tomorrow when I paint.
