Tying up loose projects...

Our sheet rocker (Alternative Drywall, 503-504-8968) was out last weekend to take a look at our project. While they aren't available until March, we agree that a good contractor is worth the wait.

Rather than sit idle between now and the completion of the sheet rock I started thinking about what projects we have around the house sitting untouched. I'm realizing that my/our follow through has been somewhat lacking. Case in point, our floors. They were finished November '06, and we've yet to complete the trim. It drives us both crazy, and yet we've seemed to have lived with it this long. But, no more! We will get it done.

Then there is the ceiling in the office. It has a big spot which remains unpainted from when C moved the closet. Again, this has been sitting since Nov. '06. Twice I have taken time off of work to complete this project, yet the primer remains.

I don't usually consider myself a slacker, but I can't come up with any reason as to why I haven't completed these projects. We've got at least four weeks until we can move on to the next phase in the bathroom/utility room. I hope that in that time I can get some stuff done.

Don't beat yourself up. We have done almost exactly no work since Ginger was born. Julio keeps saying, "we have a new baby in the house" but considering she is six months old, she's not exactly new anymore!

You've made such great progress already - I can't wait to see how it all turns out!
