Bad day-Good day

There was not too much to put on here the past couple of days, things were moving along at a snails pace. Though we did stain the ceilings, gut the kitchen and pull up rotted floor boards, finished grouting and misc. other odds and ends it didnt seem like we were getting anywhere. That being said, today was a productive day. Today with the help of many hands we were able to get the first coats of paint onto the dining room walls (they were actually the second first coats since the very first coat looked like hell next to the newly stained ceilings and we had to pick new colors), so I owe thanks to Bernie,Tad, Tony, Jim, Mike, an Chris...as well as my little nephew Christopher who acted as a very good foreman and approved of our paint choices. We also picked out our spots for the track lighting in the bar area as well as the dining room, which by the way I must say look awesome. All of that being said, I think tonight I will be able to sleep a good nights sleep. Actually tonight Laurie and I are spending the night in Manhattan and will be checking out The Spotted Pig down in the West Village for a late dinner and either Perilla, Balthazar, or Prune for brunch tomm. morning, and maybe end the trip with cupcakes from Magnolia Bakery.This is strictly a working overnight, no fun at all, strictly work (yea right). Tomorrow we will be re-surfacing the bar, and hopefully a few other things....Anyway, still working on those pics, hopefully tomorrow. 3 more weeks!
