Moved back into the MBR, pictures have yet to be hung. Finished up the floor in the walk-in closet, baseboards go in tomorrow - after a paint touchup of same, we'll be able to move into the closet as well and "The Runt" will get her clothes rack back that has been in our living room with our clothes hanging on it for the last six weeks or so...
This is the first time in a half decade that the dresser mirror has been on the dresser, its been stored behind the piano since we arrived from Commiefornia - couldn't use it in the old room.

Done with the floor in the walk-in closet. The dresser mirror waited a half decade, the curtains you see here waited over a half CENTURY! Came off my bedroom window when I was 9 years old when we moved into a new home. They were made by my mother, and I've hauled them around with me ever since. Finally found a window that they'll fit - even though they're more of a valence here! 52 years and about 2 weeks...
Clothes and costumes start moving in here tomorrow!

Belly Dance classes are fairly popular among the older set as the dance form is friendly to all body types. Many, MANY years ago, we had an octogenarian in a class I was in. She had to sit down to rest from time to time, but she was there every week. She celebrated her 88th birthday by dancing a solo at the club we all performed at! She had so much fun, that she did it again for her 89th. After that, she faded away...Is there an AARP class for belly dancers
OP
Now I get to start tearing the Library apart to paint the ceiling and replace the floor!
Look at all the dust on the floor...
Claudette the camel now has a nice place to hang out in the new walk-in!
Mundane clothing now hung up, costumes will be transferred from the Library closet in a day or two:
Pictures hung - a couple of overall shots:
That pretty much concludes this project other than the still missing door knob/lock from the closet door - and son in law is gonna paint the exterior so I don't have to. That lets me get started on the Library refloor.

OP
Starting to empty out the Library. Two book cases and a curio cabinet out so far, along with the already partially disassembled High Altar. This is taking longer than I'd like - and my Son in Law flaked on me. He was supposed to do the exterior painting, now it looks like I'm going to be doing it.
OP
Getting started on the exterior primer. I really want to be working in the library, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do!
County won't final it without paint and "landscaping". More Nanny statism. Gonna try to convince them to sign off on it without landscaping because I don't want to spend the money now, only to tear it up later with a new fence replacement - then tear part of it back out when we create the "Zen garden". Building departments waste time and money.

What happens if they don't final your project? In PA, a "final" just triggers an increase in property taxes.
OP
Oh yea - I'm QUITE sure that my property taxes are gonna go up.
OP
Well, it cost me a week that I wanted to be working on the Library, but the damn painting is done.
Looks good Zorba. That son in law better pony up a new veil for you since he flaked out on the exterior paint.
OP
He better do it quick too - I'm teaching a 4 week veil class in just over 4 weeks from now.Looks good Zorba. That son in law better pony up a new veil for you since he flaked out on the exterior paint.

Floor is done; and with the exception of the computer, everything is back in place, a new table for the computer is here, and the High Altar has been re-assembled although the pump for the Buddha fountain was stuck and needed unfarkling.
OP
And what should be the very last pix - computer system back in place. No bullshit tiny screens for me!
The addition passed its final inspection today...
