Saturday we began phase 2 of the house project which involved combining two rooms from the first floor into a new master bedroom "suite". We didn't go overboard and tie it into the bathroom, but the doors to the bed and bathrooms are literally 3 feet apart so it isn't really necessary. Going into Friday night the rooms weren't even empty enough for us to think about cutting through a wall and framing in new closet space. By Saturday morning at about 8:30 a.m. we were cutting through the wall. We ran into some minor re-wiring issues which held us up, but we did manage to get everything framed and cleaned up by around dinner time. Still, we have slept in a construction zone with open framing the last two nights. Dad is hanging sheet rock today and the plasterer is coming tomorrow so we're working fast to get it back together. Paint will be held up a bit by the amount of stuff that's still in the rooms, but I'll find a way to work around it even if I'm painting one wall at a time.
Upstairs painting is nearly complete also. One more room to finish before the carpeters show up. No ETA on that yet, but I'm going to try and finish painting by tomorrow just to be sure.
Still no pictures downloaded... sorry folks. Just keeping up with the work has been bad enough. I'll get them all up eventually.
