Demolition Day 2: Harry Potter conversion to our Master Bedroom begins

Here's a shot from when Brendan checked on it during the day...


But at night it was much more sinister...


And gone... sinnister and totally gone...

Just When You Thought It Was Safe...

...Brendan's family came to help do the floors in the bathroom, unfortunately we were put off by some leaky plumbing.




AND YES, THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE THINKING... MORE (AND PREVIOUSLY UNSEEN PATTERN OF) WALLPAPER.

They Came Bearing Muffins, Fruit, & Juice

Sunday morning we arrived and Bone Daddy had already arrive with Aunt Debbie AND had already started cleaning house.




At times the work was 'fun.'




Other times it was downright scary.




Mostly it was exhausting.




But after those moments of spite and rage against inanimate objects subsided...




...there were moments of victory that made it all worth while (yes- I found and destroyed yet MORE wallpaper).








Victory or slight delirium?




All in all we got some trim painted, the yard and house perimeter largely cleaned up, the downstairs bathroom primed, kitchen scrubbed, and one toilet taken apart/one toilet put together. There was caulking and scrapping and disposing of sorts. The muffins were awesome; we need a wegmans up here in the boonies.

Coming up... the big move!!!
