We've Got Walls, Peeps!

The contractor called on Saturday afternoon to see if he could move up our install to Monday. Um, YEAH! OF COURSE we were all over that. So we kicked it into high gear: Walker painted the ceiling.....

while I moved all the smaller furniture pieces along with all the "decor". Plants went out to the patio, art was removed from the walls and stored under the bed in the guest room. End tables were stashed in the basement. Et cetera. The rest of the furniture was shoved into the middle of the living room and covered with a tarp.

And now we have walls, with one coat of mud, so far.  There will be a couple more coats of mud, then primer, then paint. Right now, everything is covered in a thick layer of dust.  The contractor vacuumed up what he could, but we'll have a lot of cleaning to do when they finish.  I don't care - it's going to be beautiful and it's worth every pound of dust we have to sweep.

That clunky front door is going, too.  Stay tuned!
