The tasks this weekend were: make a fence in the backyard to keep the dog in, clean up the additional room to allow the floor person in, and prime and paint the walls in the living room and dining room.
We waked into a HUGE mess left behind by Mark Loyal's (our GC's) workers. We were PISSED! Thank goodness he told us he would send someone in to clean it all up.

The happy (and exhausted) homeowners:
