Sale Prep - Day 13

Lots more good stuff happened on Day 13.  The painters were on hand again to continue their amazing progress and we continued to pack stuff up and get it out.

The fireplace surround now has it's first coat of special primer.  You can still see the underlying color a little bit, but things are really moving now!

The big deal today was the kitchen and the new wall.  The painter cocooned himself in the kitchen with tape (we actually taped him in from the outside) so that we could do the sanding of the new wall and the finished ceiling in the kitchen.  There was a ton of dust, even with the cocoon, but no worries.  Sooooooo much stuff was accomplished, I don't even mind.

In the meantime, we prepped the wet bar area to be painted by taking all of the wet bar stuff and putting it on the dining room table and the coffee table.  Pizza for dinner tonight!

But the empty wet bar was too tempting to the painter, so during a break from working on the wall and ceiling, he knocked it out.

So clean and pretty.

And in the kitchen, we are making real progress on finishing out our "temporary" ceiling and light fixtures.  Oh, if we had the time and inclination we would have finally installed the can lights we always wanted.  Cest la vie.

At least this way we will have a finished ceiling with the appropriate texture that will look finished and clean.  Win, win.
