By Grabthar's Hammer ...what a savings. I'm tired and sore.
Despite many things going not-so-right, the new guest room is, for the most part, done. I still need to re-hang the trim around the doors and install baseboards, but the walls are up and painted, the ceiling is mostly crack free and has a fresh coat of paint, and the carpet is in. Many thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sithlorddarren, noradannan, funwithrage, mechasquid, jameyhasnolj, conspiratrix, vogan999, eclecticgypsie, and russiandude for all the help provided - y'all helped me get through the rough spots and the despair at ever getting things finished before the baby arrived.
Did a little cleanup with my love tonight, but for the rest of the day, I was a lazy shit. I realized late Saturday night that I was tapped out in terms of stress management and was ready to (and shamefully did in one or two cases) snap a folks who didn't deserve it. Spending today watching Day Watch and playing MoM made things a lot better. The fact that I took today for the 4th of July holiday also helped, I'm sure.
So now, I get to move into Phase II of Operation Impending Baby, which pretty much entails moving all the furniture out of the old guest room and down into the new guest room, end then painting the old guest room. This will then segue into Phase III, which entails picking up the baby furniture and setting it up in the baby's room. All in all, not a lot more to do, but as seems to be the rallying cry surrounding getting things ready, I'll need some help.
If anyone is available any night this week to help move a dresser (mercifully light), a queen sized bed (also light), and an entertainment center (sadly, not light at all), I'd be, as always, eternally grateful. I can feed you and ply you with tasty alcohol and also promise to at least try and use one of the letters of your name when we name the baby.
