Ceiling done! Well, sort of!

Well it's almost done. I still have some trimming to do around the edges. But, overall it's done! My arm and elbow have taken the beating from all this work. So I've taken it easy for a while now. Once I got to the point of uncovering the furniture and removing the plastic from everything it was easy to say it's done.
We still have work to do on the walls and floor. But that is time!
We are pretty easy going about living in a less then perfect house and so that makes it o.k. to have things not finished.
Don has finished the bricks on the fireplace and he's ready to put up the barnboard panel, which is the top of the fireplace. But he's still planning on building a deck outside on the right of the fireplace. He wants a door there so we have easier access to the wood in the winter. It's pretty amazing how much we can warm up the whole house with that nice wood insert fireplace. I would like him to build a corner cabinet from barnboards for the tv and electronics, so we have a bit more to work on. Right now it's time to enjoy the kids and attend ballgames to support the Cherokee Ball team.
