I've got red on me

[lokheed]

Today was a major step forward in the home office.  The first color coat went up, and what a huge difference it makes.  In about an hour the room was transformed from looking like a turkish prison cell to actually starting to look like a real room.  Tomorrow I will go back for the second and final coat, after which I can swap out all of the outlets and switches and also install the new ceiling fan and light.

Also this evening I bought the new flooring, which should be ready for pickup tomorrow.  The timing should be about right, since the flooring has to acclimate to the room for at least 24 hours before it can be put down.  I still have the trim painting to do after the second color coat, so by the weekend I should be ready to start laying down planks.

Yay!

Oh, and one other thing:  Happy Birthday, damashita!  I hope you had a wonderful day.
