Drywall-a-palooza: Part 1

For the record, the radio silence on the Duper Dwelling blog does not translate into lack of work on the house. It's a pretty busy time for both of us at our actual jobs (the ones that pay money that we spend on supplies for working on the house). At home, we've stepped up the pace on the drywall work and paint stripping. That translates into less time for blogging. But I'm awake before dawn on a Sunday morning, so here we go.

First, one sheet of drywall went up in the front room:

That sheet became a wall:

And the wall became a room:

It's pretty weird to not be able to see through the walls anymore. Particularly because we tore out the walls in 2009. Sheesh.

The pictures above are from the room we call the "front room." It's actually a bedroom, but our plan is to make it the living room while we live upstairs, and the office when we're in the whole house. That way we can keep the third floor set up as a guest area, which provides a little more privacy for visitors.
 
Next up: Drywall-a-palooza: Part 2. Coming later this morning when Mike wakes up and I can ask him where he put the camera. Finding things in this workzone house is a never ending challenge. Particularly since we sleep in the dining room and our dining room set is in the garage. Confused about the floor plan yet?
