Courtesy Post.

Followers, this post is strictly out of guilt as if my conscience wasn't harping on me to get a post up tonight, I'd be long since crashed in bed. However, I owe it to you to post despite bitter exhaustion...so here it is...a courtesy post.

Highs for the day
- My GRACIOUS in-law's watched my girls most of the day so I could clean my heart out. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a huge help!
- Finished the enlargements for the gallery wall and framed them. The stairway is now my happy place.
- Got our bedroom completely cleaned and empty of all things that don't belong in it.
- Got G's room cleaned and emptied of all things that don't belong in it.
- Got office and bathroom well on their way to clean
- Folded a bajillion loads of laundry
- Sink/toilet installed in main floor powder bath
- Lights all over the flipping place
- Exterior of house and garage completely done, touched up and paid for. It's GLORIOUS!

Lows for the day
- My back is KILLING me from cleaning all day
- There is an issue with a circuit that means we can't get lights on in the family room. Let's hope it doesn't mean them cutting into the walls to figure out what the heck's going on. AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
- Appliances still aren't fully installed...should be tomorrow.
- A few wrong parts sent for plumbing fixtures mean main floor toilet is installed, but not functional.
- Finishing gallery wall means now removing railing to give the hallway a fresh coat of paint.


It was a fantastically productive day though and I'm well on my way to getting acquainted to multi-level living vs stuff-ourselves-in-3-rooms living. Here are a few more sneak peeks for you....mostly of REFLECTIONS now that we have...LIGHT! TOMORROW IS COUNTERTOP DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
