Labor Day, 2004.  Our mission is to pull out the closet in this room.  This room is the worst.  Falling lathe and plaster and gobs of blown-in insulation. Karol is well protected. Karol is scary. The room had a drop ceiling (where the wallpaper ends).  We took it down.  At great risk to life and limb.  We threw the lumber etc out the window and on to a tarp on the lawn. Doesn't look like much, but it's home. Framing in the closet.  Framing gone.  It's magic. We are not removing all that lathe and plaster!  Mike will brace it up and we'll drywall.  Some day! We did get down to the lathe around the doorway.  At this time (Feb 2005), this room is still not done.  Waiting for a break in the weather so we can get a delivery of dry wall.  At least that's what we tell ourselves! March 20 -- we rent the dry wall lifter for Bedroom 3! Measure twice, cut once!  This room needed the most "covering up" 3/4 of the way done. Nice clean walls. Mike's famous tray ceiling. Kept the alcove alive for the bed. Looking in from the hall. Jess hanging border.  We can't find the pictures of the painting day.... We love this girl!
