Drywall Going Up

Almost 100% of the drywall is up in the "Listening Room".  It will be setup as a stereo room, complete with isolated circuit with hospital grade outlet. To be honest, I don't really need it, but it makes for an attractive space which could enhance resale value.


The back wall will be a rock veneer, so it won't get drywall, instead it will get backer board, but I won't put that up till the mudding is done.  Have about 2 minor pieces left to finish up this room.

Also, since this includes drywall work in the basement bedroom, I needed to clean up the spare room and turn it into temporary storage so I have a place to keep all the stuff that will go into these rooms.

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.

Paint

Had to get a coat of paint on before the rains hit.  Not completely sold on the blue trim, may due a dark brown or grey there instead, but a huge improvement over what it was.  Right now I only have one coat on, and haven't done the edging right, so it's a rough paint job, but it will tide the house over until I get a patch of good weather and can finish the job.
Figuring out a plan for the sunken area, cleared it all out.  Will likely need to deal with the chimney first.
