Today, the painter was there. He painted the ceiling and the walls. I told him not to paint the windowsills because I plan to have tile installed on them to keep the dogs from destroying the drywall when they jump up to look out the window.
My contractor and his boss(?) came around 3:00 to look around and finalize some things. If all goes well, the entire job should be done (pass inspection and I can start moving stuff into the room) around the first week of December. That's almost three months ahead of the scheduled completion date.
Hopefully tomorrow the tile will be installed in the bathroom so the toilet can be replaced. That should allow my daughter to move back into her room so there will be room for my other daughter to sleep on the sofa when she visits for Thanksgiving!
It's going to be great, except that now I have to actually plan a Thanksgiving meal. My youngest will be with two other families, so I planned to lounge and sleep, maybe have a small ham. Oh, I have to get a couple of bottles of sparkling cider.
