Day 5. Well we are a day behind schedule. We heard from my brother that he is bringing enough Cherry Flooring for the whole place on Saturday. We need to take it up a notch to get the place ready for the install. Our original plan was to ignore the upstairs ceilings after we had sanded, since most of the time critical items were for the downstairs areas. But now that are putting flooring upstairs as well, we need to get that done ASAP. We also need to get the kitchen cabinets ripped out before then as well so that we can get the flooring in.

Goals: Prime the ceilings dowstairs, in the upstairs stairwell, and sand the remaining unsanded ceilings (bedrooms, bathroom, closets) if there is time.

We ended up tearing out the crappy closet hanging systems that they had in both bedroom closets before we got started. We decided to move from there to priming and we managed to get the entire first floor done by midnight. The purple area was especially difficult because it butts up against the staircase.

We originally had planned to take Thursday night off to buy paint and tools, but we are going to go in then to finish priming and sanding the remaining ceilings. We will make our shopping trip short.
