sessifetThe wallpaper's in and the ceilings and walls have been painted. The two Alexes put in the carpet last weekend while I was in Lancaster with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
the_ladylark (awesome to see her again. Get to see her again at the Con in less than two weeks!) wired up the tech and tested it. I spent the week tidying, sorting and generally making things ready. Yesterday evening the curtains went up, and today the tech went in. Various decorative items have found their way into the room and after a quick last once over, I am calling an official end to Project House.
It only took five times longer than my initial plan of three months. Could it have been done sooner? Probably. Am I doing it this way again? Probably not. Was it worth it? Erm...can I buy a vowel?
Apart from signing on on Monday and job hunting in the mornings, I'm going to take a week off. I will cook, do housework if I want, read in my garden, frolic through the garden in a cloud of buzzing things and drag Alex downstairs to actually spend time in the shiny new living room.
