As I was heading to bed last night, I looked out the bedroom window... and snapped this picture. It kind of looks surreal. The sticky snow painted the big maple tree white.

    As I was walking today, I passed a park area which is flooded with melting snow & rain. The ducks don't seem to mind. Kinda of helps put things into perspective... one person's flood is another's feast.

    And it's not that big of a bedroom... He had every inch piled full. I didn't realize how much.

    Linen closet baseboards, installed and caulked...

    This tiny piece of trim required fitting around the trim and the bottom of the handrail. I went up and down a dozen times, trimming it to fit... At least half an hour worth of fussy work. Gah!!

    I'm trying to find joy in this activity but crawling on hands & knees hasn't been easy to appreciate.

    Getting ready to sell and move has proved more emotional for me than I anticipated. I wish my wife was up here to help but alas...

    I'm trying to remain optimistic and upbeat... but it does feel a bit overwhelming.

    I'm still kind of shocked they put up a sign before pictures taken etc... Really ramps up the pressure on me to finish staging. Ugh.
