State of the room

[mapsedge]

And the final score:

• Final coat of mud in the trouble spots around the new windows - done


• Unload the tall bookcases and take them down to the garage to be cut down to a more manageable and useful size - done


• Move the aquarium to its new home in the living room - done


• Move the TV and the box it sits on to the dining room - done. Tv is now sitting on a new stand, the old one is by the curb


• move remaining furniture to the center of the room and cover - done


• prime - done


• Go, drink something strong, wait - no waiting: in the time it took to work our way around the room the primer at the starting point was dry and ready to topcoat. The brandy will have to come later


• paint - done


• trim out the new windows - yet to be done


• return the room to its former, livable state - done, except for moving wall decorations back. The paint has to cure first.

Much improved. In case I forget to say so before I pass out asleep, thank you Michelle, for all the work you did today. I couldn't have done it without you.
