Remodel 6/22/16

I didn't get to far today as I really just HAD to do some of my regular office work for a change.
 Got this far on the wall today..... 2 more walls to go... floor and ceiling. 

 Part of what we are decorating around. 
 What my shoes and legs look like now.   and Journey... our center piece and focal point. 

Remodeling is very hard work

I have been planning a remodel of our office space for a long time.  The idea has changed repeatedly over the several years I have wanted to do this.  Because of the "final design" I am glad that I didn't do it to start with as my final has changed considerably. 

We got advice from several people who do this either for a living or just have a great deal of knowledge on the subject and all assured us that this was a project that was really no big deal as projects go.  I believed them.      We can get in there and do this in a long weekend, they said.... hahaha and I believed them.  

But, I guess considering that we really only have rudimentary knowledge of what we are doing and youtube videos we aren't doing too badly.  The people who have looked at it so far have told us we are doing a great job.  (The professional and knowledgeable people, not just random people.0)

Here are shots of so far......








Update at the end of today HOPEFULLY will include finished north wall.. (the blue one in this last shot)  primer and maybe first coat on east wall... and all the trash in the room cleaned up so that after the north wall is done I can tear down ceiling tile and scrape up the floor to be ready to put down floor by the weekend.  I'm going to be really, really proud of myself when I get this done!!!  If I can keep this 50 something body moving long enough to do it.  Wish me luck
