Prioritizations: Front Door trumped by Carpet

Front door arrived today. It's the right size, and that makes me happy. It weighs about 10,000 pounds, and that makes me weary. Think I am going to need to recruit some more muscle. After all the door needs to squeeze into an opening that is only 1/8" larger than the door. This should be interesting.

Of course, I am not going to even start on this project until the house is ready for carpet install. We have about one more room upstairs to paint, and then mudding/taping/painting downstairs. Once that work is done, then we can return to such exciting topics as front doors, lighting fixtures and whatnot.

This weekend is going to be an easier weekend labor-wise for us. We apply the mud, wait 24 hours. Sand. Apply mud. Wait 24 hours. That means lots of time being... ??... human beings!! We will go do some fun stuff with the kids.

And that is a good thing, because we are pretty much run ragged. We have been over at the house every single day working on it since we bought it a month ago. Yes, it's been a month.
