This isn't how I imagined I'd be spending my first night in the house but there I was, inflatable mattress and all, spending the night on the living room floor. It was kind of like camping and not having Sophie and Ileana around made it even stranger (though I did get a very enthusiastic "goodnight da da" from Sophie over the phone before she went to bed. It was not a very comfortable night but it did give me enough time at the house to complete the first layer of poly on the floors. I was also at the house early enough to meet the floor levelers for the basement.Even though things are getting done in a haphazard manner, it looks like a good portion of the work we wanted completed on the home before we move in will actually get done. Sophie's bedroom won't be painted but at least the floor is done. Carpeting arrives for the basement next week and by that time, we should have a good handle on the ceiling and painting in that room.
Only two more nights in Chicago and then we'll be living in the OP every night!
