Fireplace

Finally have a decent, usable fireplace.  The wood burning stove was removed a while ago, and I finally got around to ordering the parts I needed.  I also got up in there and removed all the crud that was left over.  When they installed the wood burner they just put a bit of flashing up there, and a lot of junk had accumulated behind it.  Even found what was left of the old damper.
I still need to install a top mount damper, as it's pretty much just open right now, but I'll do that in the next few days.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower.  1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan.  Tested and approved by the inspector.  Next is upper pan and then tile.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath.  Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down.  Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad.  Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat.  Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish.  Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.
