Tonight I left work a few hours early and decided to finish up the wire brush sanding of the wall, clean up the room, and at least partially put it back in order. I'm really happy with how it looks so far. Here is a link to the album:

I'm not going to put back all of my books and art until the tile/carpentry work is done, but at least I'll have a place to lay down and sit to read the paper. I feel like I've been standing since this project started!
The manual labor served a few purposes. First, one of my best friends resigned from work for a new opportunity and his going away happy hour was last night. It was an adventure. I was a little hung over today, but not as much as he was. As it should be. ;-) I felt much better after the physical sanding work. Also, taking care of this Friday will allow me to have more of a weekend, since I'll be out of town for half of it. I can do errands and just catch up on life for the other day, since I won't have to spend it on this project.
I'm hoping the tile and wall work for the fireplace can happen in October. The remaining gas fireplaces will be installed mid-September. So, I should be all set up for the fall. I just need a few friends to visit me!
