We're getting close!

It's been a long couple of weeks. After a morning and some days afternoon at Luz y Vida (no kids yet, so just prep work), I head over to Torre Fuerte to do prep work and paint. The bane of Sara's and my existence over these past few weeks has been the downstairs. It's taken sooooo long to get to the point where we could actually paint it. But, today, the day finally came.

Here's what the living room/dining room looked like this morning (well, actually, that picture is a bit old. The ceiling already had 2 coats of white paint this morning and just some touch up work to do):

Sara, Abby, Edwin, 2 girls from the continuing ed group at Luz y Vida and I spent from 11 to 6 today at Torre Fuerte.

Here's what it looked like when we left. (It was already getting dark out and we took down the overhead lights to paint the ceiling, so the picture isn't the best)

We also got the floors in my room And Doris' room waxed and polished, the beds put together and the furniture brought in. Here's my room. (I forgot to take pictures in Doris' room)

Tomorrow Doris and I move. Sara and Stephen will be there working all day and will hopefully get their room painted and finish the trim and detail work in the living room. In the evening we're going to Septimazo and Abby will spend the night. Saturday if all goes according to plan, our gas and the door should be repaired, and if things go really well, we'll get the glass we need and an appointment with our internet provider.
