Welcome to Project Update Thursday

Pulled some crown molding, mudded and taped a corner that was never taped since the house was built (WTF). Molding is back up and caulked.

Starting to prime the room, bookshelves have lots and lots of places that need paint.
I also pulled up the carpet in here before, screwed down the subfloor to eliminate squeaks, this will have the same wood floor as the living room across the hall (kitchen is in the middle of the two, so it will be the entire floor painted and flooring replaced by the time I'm done).
That's all I've got for this week, time to get back to painting.

I'm upgrading the electrical in the basement and adding a subpanel to the detatched garage
been on a hiatus for a couple weeks due to 2 kids under the age of 3, and other real world responsibilities

I found that electrical always takes longer than anticipated.
Sent my kids to Poland with the Mother In Law for the bulk of the reno.

@ChrisCudmore you mean I can seriously use that in really small amounts?

In actual fact, I'd pull out the chainsaw and cut them. But I'd get in a Structural Tree Engineer to verify first.
