Another week, another reno update! We didn't do much work on the living room throughout the week, other than John working on the one patch in the ceiling. Yesterday though, we spent the majority of the day working on the living room and had some real progress!

On Saturday, John ripped up the rest of the carpet and took it outside, while I pulled out the majority of the staples and pulled up the boards with nails that help the carpet down, John did some of this near the end of the day. I also did most of the taping around the baseboards and started painting the first coat of paint on them.
We went to Home Depot in the early afternoon to buy the quarter round and door trim for the patio door. Since we had dinner/evening plans, we didn't get around to putting them up, but we did get the rest of the electrical outlits and light switches changed and the covers put back on. Even that made a huge difference!
Here are some pictures from the work we completed. The living room has drastically changed without the carpet!

Our goal this week is to get everything completed so that we can (hopefully) have the furniture moved back into the living and dining room by Friday! So stay tuned....
