the passing of time..

Posted in renovations..

I sometimes get to wondering what on earth happens to the time in a day.  During the renovation process we often got a LOT of work done in the span of a day but now that the crunch is over, it seems I can't get so much accomplished.  I think I know where my problem is, though.  I fail to plan.  And then on top of it all, I have a hard time sticking to a plan even when I make one!  :(  I'm working on it though and I daresay I've improved some since renovating. 

So, *S* has painted her bookshelf but it's still drying/curing.  Soon she'll be able to move it to her room and get her books into it.  Our old appliances have moved on to another home to bless others.  We were hoping to get a few dollars for them but in the end we donated them to a friend who rents houses.  I'm sure a little patience would have seen them sell but we're plumb out of that these days. LOL  I was a little surprised to get teary-eyed as our friend pulled away from the house with them on his trailer.  How silly is that?  Attached to appliances... 

Now that the appliances are gone, the remaining baseboards were put in and in the next couple days I'll touch them up.  They were painted before we cut them but there's some holes to fill and stuff.  As you might have guessed, I haven't done the faux finish on that wall yet.  It'll hopefully get done this coming week.  I did hang pictures in the livingroom though!  :) 

So, there's really not too much left to do.  The interior doors, and putting things away in most of the rooms.  Not that we haven't put things away.  We just have more to do.  It feels like there's always more to do but I have to keep reminding myself that when it's done it'll be beautiful.  One thing I hope will get done soon is calling the cable guy to re-install the upstairs cable outlets. 

Anyway, that's where we are with our progress now.
