So all I wanted for my own brain was to get one room pretty much done.  Well I got that and more.  =)  I'm exhausted and grateful right now.  We got the flooring down in bean's room,  all the cabinets painted and hinges done and all rehung.  The kitchen is basically done. The refrigerator is in its spot.   I have to touch up the trim/molding for the kitchen/dining room and we will rehang it soon.  We need to purchase the 1/4 round for ... ok basically the whole house.    We got the laminate into the bathroom and laundry room and I have to say I LOVE it!!  

But honestly the best thing was when R came over today with B to help me get so much done (I will be forever in their debt!!)  and when she walked into my home she said "it just feels cozy and inviting and homey."   That is exactly how I want people to feel coming into my home! 

The other awesome thing was E stopped by and dropped off the most beautiful (non working) clarinet.  She told us it had been played even during WWII.  Its just a beautiful piece and the case is amazing. I can't wait to double check and then turn it into a lamp for the boy's room.  I'm not sure what to do with the case but its just beautiful so it will get used for something.    

Lots of progress today and I'm excited.
