Well it only took a week or so for the contractors to frame and drywall the basement rooms, but boy is the painting ever taking a while. We've been at it for I think two weeks now and we finally finished painting the ceiling and walls of all three rooms yesterday. We've almost finished putting in the baseboards and chair rails (which also needed painting).
I sure do appreciate now having a compressor and nail gun. That makes attaching them to the wall so much easier!
The late nights though are really taking their toll. The mornings are coming far too fast. I think when we finally have all of this work complete I'm going to take a week to go to bed a 10:00 PM every night (ha ha ha) just to try to catch up on so many lost hours.
The results though are pleasing. The rooms look so clean and up-to-date. Bright colors make them a cheery place to be in the house. I'll post a few pictures when completed. I'll have to scour my photo database to see if I have any "before" pictures for comparison.
Cora's niece from Hawaii is coming Sunday to visit, so we are trying to get eveything put back together before she arrives - and I will be in California on Friday. I hope we can get as much as possible done tomorrow (Thursday).
