Do you ever get so tired of studying that you just want to do this?

Just kidding!
I actually only have one class this summer and I am enjoying it.
This is the beginning of another project. I may have mentioned in the past that I live in an old house that needs a lot of work. We decided to tackle the living room this summer. We are really not doing anything major, mostly just cosmetic stuff. In this picture I am tearing out an old flue that is no longer needed. We are planning to texture the ceiling, paint, put up new molding and lights, add a wood burning stove and a glass door into the entry way, and replace the really hideous old carpet with wood flooring.
Here are a couple of "before" pictures and I will follow up this summer with more pictures as the project progresses.
