When oh when....

The redecorating continues. Our living room is in a shambles. So far though our friend has remudded the cracks, twice...sanded everything to within an inch of it's life, and now primed the wood work. ETA on having the living room completed is next weekend. We kind of had to relay to him that he had to concentrate on one room at a time even though it might be easier for him to so each step in each room at the same time. That way was taking way too long and this being a small apartment meant we did not have even one room, other than the bedroom, to be in when he was working. So, he's concentrating on the living room and then moving on. I really didn't anticipate that this would be taking this long. I though he would slap some fresh paint up and be done. Ah well...

Found out today that while Alexander and I are in Sweden, my sister/landlord is putting in (drum roll please!) laminate wood floors in the kitchen, hallways and bathroom. AND we're getting a new toilet installed! Whooo hoo!! This is real progress here, folks. This place hasn't had a good sprucing in a very long time and it's going to be nice to have a place that we don't have to be ashamed to have someone over! Can't wait!
