Electrical and NO MORE WALLPAPER!

James had Sunday off from work so he got busy running more electrical wires.  It takes a good couple hours to run just a couple wires but it's getting there.  He also stapled a bunch of wires in the basement that he's been meaning to do.

James busy with his work.


A couple days ago, I finally finished taking down all the wallpaper!  I successfully did the living room, dining room, kitchen and front hallway all by myself!  It only took me almost a year, but I did it!



Since James is working so much overtime, we think we're going to hire our Irish plasterer guy to fix up the front hallway.  Apparently that single door there into the living room was actually once a big doorway.  I think it would look better opened up again but we're not going to do that.  Too much work.  I told James that I could plaster up the hallway but I don't think he has faith in my plastering abilities.  I don't blame him.  I don't have faith in my non-existent plastering abilities either.  Oh, and I added pictures of random holes in the walls and ceilings that need fixing too.

Congratulations on the elimination of wallpaper- quite possibly one of the worst inventions of mankind! We're dealing with that in my mom's house right now, and it is ridiculous.
It looks like the house is keeping you and James quite busy whenever you have any free time.
All the blood, sweat, and tears will pay off though :)
