Do you remember that project that totally dominated the postings on this blog from February through early May? Wondering what happened? Assuming it was all an illusion and magically disappeared?
Somehow in the Brouhaha of violent attacks on Wife's foot and trying to get back to normal on our return from Sweden, we kind of have just settled in without actually having an 'official end' to the project. One of the problems is there are still a number of small things that have not been completed. So if the job is 93% done, and it has been very frustrating getting those responsible to finish these last pieces. So, in fact, it isn't done. Another issue is Wife has declared that until we do all the final decoration (throw rugs, additional paintings, getting existing paintings up, etc.) completed the job is not 'DONE'.
Now the problem with this is 'scope creep'. This is the fact that Wife Always has another idea of how to improve the beauty of the Towers. In this scenario the Remodel is actually never done! It's just a steady state of existence.
Despite this at least three times I've started to take pictures to show the 'almost' finished product for a 'before' and 'after' post. Then I've been confronted with having done a piss poor job of taking 'before' pictures. I took a couple sad pictures of the bathrooms and COMPLETELY forgot about the flooring and painting which were major components of the job.
SO. I've reconciled myself that I will only be able to show 'after' photos and have committed myself to doing so this weekend.

I sometimes do the same thing with my own DIY projects- I peter out when I'm 95% done. Looking forward to seeing the (almost) finished results.
but still excited to see the after pictures such as they are!!
