OMGosh. YOu are doing so much yourself. Looks like a big project and I am envious of what you will have when you are finsihed. I love the slanted ceilings. It is like a dormer. I have a walk in attic up above and already have a door added on teh side of the house, you go up the stairs and open it and then you can walk across the whole top. I wanted to have it for crafts but too much for us now. I will keep checking on your progress. I love watching the progress and the wonderful things chaning and getting finished. Stay cool and don't over do it. I remember living in Washington State adn no A/c. I was shocked but then got acclimated and realized they did not need it mostr of the time. Happy adventures. HUGS♥♥

Debbie,
I always do alot of things myself. I only ask DH to help if something is a little too large for me to move, but even then I don't ask. LOL
I am just stubborn like that !! LOL
Ksea - I am getting excited now, the one side is almost ready for paint !!!
I will take breaks & drink plenty of lemon water. I bet I have drank over 6 gallons of water in the past 4 days. LOL
I am usually a big coffee drinker. :-D

Wow! You are really transforming that space! I sympathize with the wallpaper stripping - we had a house built in 1860 once and when I started stripping the paper in our bedroom, there were 6 layers on all 4 walls AND 3 layers on the ceiling! You can sit back and be really proud of what you've accomplished! I have a suggestion for the middle room with no windows - you could look into a couple of "tubular" skylights. Even ONE small one would light up your room. We installed one in a room that was always pretty dark, and it looks like a round light that's on all day! That's something you could add down the road . . .

gramma mo,
Had checked about tubular skylight, when we had some roof work done. They couldn't promise it would not leak, because of the type of metal roof we have. I am ok with that, because we had what they called " condensation leaks" , there was no vapor barer between original board roof & metal roof, so it would drip & leak. We were able to reuse the metal, it was still in good shape.
Well, break time is over, back to muddin :-D
Later all !! :-D
