The drywalling is done (except for touch-ups) and the painter managed to spray two floors before going to bed with the flu. It seems like everyone is getting sick, being sick or in recovery from being sick right now, including us! I hope he heals quickly.

The window trim is uber-simple – a squared off sill and drywalled box around the other three sides. I love our windows, but i am a little puzzled as to how i am going to mount blinds over them – the windows need to be able to open at the top and to swing open. The up side is that when they are closed, the silence in the house is deafening. who knew good windows could make such a difference in blocking sound?

more to come…
