We Almost Have a Bedroom

The floors are in, the walls and ceiling have been painted, and the trim has been painted (but needs one more coat). We’ll finish putting in the baseboard tonight, and then assemble and install my wardrobe tomorrow.

My hands and wrists hurt, but soon we will have a bedroom again.

Sleeping in the Hallway.

Yeah! Sleeping in the hallway is awesome! Oh, wait… no it’s not. It’s weird and awkward!

Sorry for the unmade bed, but seriously… why bother? We’re putting in our floors this weekend, so we will soon have a nice bedroom.

Also, you may remember that I had posted about wanting the above bed (“Dreaming of a new bedroom”). We love it! Our old mattress suddenly feels better, and reading in bed is much more comfortable (the headboard is slanted). Yay!

Ugh. Our flooring came in, so Brandon and I went to Lowes to pick it up. Twas the wrong type of floor.

When we ordered it, we asked plenty of questions about installation (noting that we were going to do it ourselves), and we knew that we wanted to do a floating installation. I don’t think a nail-down or glue-down floor is within our skills, and that’s exactly what was ordered.

Well, it turns out that the floating, click-together type of floor was more expensive (+ $600!). We ended up getting it for the same price as the other stuff though, since it wasn’t our mistake. So thanks, Lowes. You both frustrate and calm us.

Now our floors won’t arrive for another 10 days.
