And the bedroom is finally completely painted. No carpet so no moving back in, however.
Tom picked up and cleaned up the painting paraphernalia, and that took almost as long as the actual painting! I know I exaggerate, but we sure did accumulate a lot of brushes and tools and dropclothes and newspapers, etc. And when I say "we," I mean Tom.

After a yummy dinner of tamales, I was ready to sleep, but it was time to pack up more boxes instead. Although there is hardly any room to navigate in Ted's old room, we carried down box after box of books, trying to empty Ted's room to work on it next.
