Dust, dust - everywhere freakin' dust!!!!!!!!

Well the drywall in the basement is done. It looks AWESOME!! It's amazing to see the transformation from basically a concrete block with some 2x4's, to a fully drywalled basement. The rooms look HUGE!!

Of course, the major downside is the bloody dust. We have dust everywhere!! We've washed the floors on the main floor at least 4 times (in one day!!), and Chris has vaccuumed, washed and dusted downstairs until he's blue in the face. We even changed the filter on the furnace because the old one was clogged with dust. Grrrrr.... the downsides to finishing a basement in the dead of winter.

But, with the walls and ceiling up you can almost see the whole thing being finished soon. Of course, we still have to prime, paint, dry-core the floor, lay the carpet and laminet, put up the trim, doors, etc. But, we're almost there - really!!

As a complete aside - our Quinn will be TWO (yes, TWO!) in four days!! How is that possible? However, he is now known as "Pinn". Yep, he's figured out his name, but he can't quite make the "Qu" sound. So Pinn it is!!
