Making progress: At home

So this weekend we (well, Duncan) installed the hardwood flooring in our bedroom. It only took us...1.5 years (after buying it). We plan to put it in the kids' bedroom as well and then switch rooms with them. I can't wait. I'm sick of the ugly, dirty plywood, which was a vast improvement over the horrid carpet. At least we'll be able to enjoy our room with the lovely floor for a few (well, likely many) months!
The current faux-wood flooring in the kids' room (and what was in our room).

"New and Improved" and lovely.

Hooray! You know I understand how this feels, right? Mike was working on our upstairs bathroom yesterday, the one that has taken us 3+ years and going to finish. I was working all day on the computer, came upstairs and nothing looked different. Dude, whathaveyoubeendoin'?! Well, he was in his shop varnishing the trim for around the shower. Heavy sigh. All of these finishing touches are taking for bloody ever.
So congrats - you deserve it, it's been a long time coming.
