Look to what IS going to be there... not the mess now.

Yeah... so.. wow... WHAT A FUCKING MESS!!!! I came home to a complete construction zone with holes in walls from ladders piercing the cardboardlike material, and from where the electrician had to punch holes, sawdust and super fine dirt EVERYWHERE, and power via 2 extension cords only.

I wondered how it bad it was going to be when the contractor asked me if I was sure I wanted to stay here last night. I had hoped this day would be more about cleaning up, moving stuff out of the huge (now dust covered) piles of stuff all over the time house. This will now be happening. I am prolly stuck with this through the weekend. and by this I mean THIS:

What I do know is that this is temporary..
I am going to be warmer and cooler at the right times as a result of getting the ceiling insulated, and it adds a cool dimension to the room that was by far the smallest in the house. It's going to be cool, and the project hopefully will pull together fairly quickly the next couple days.

But right now?
All I see is a weeks worth of scrubbing and patching then shop vac-ing till the wee hours. And after that?  I guess I have to paint... which I hadn't really thought about (typical..) but there are going to be some massive patches all over the living room and kitchen. Might be time to do that cool record album wall covering I have been thinking about...
