Always a Surprise Waiting
As I mentioned the other day, I was having a hard time getting motivated to get back to the walls. A lot of stress this weekend left me rather disinterested, but at the same time I wanted to be busy and at least plug along. Here's a shot of the east wall in the laundry room, the same wall that's shared with the workshop.

And just for fun, here's a before and after (although it's more of a progress shot):
At least it was a little progress! Getting closer to the laundry room (excitement mixed with nerves).
