Hung the drywall. Couldn't figure out why we were getting gaps. The frekin drywall square isn't!

Ready for primer tomorrow. I would have liked to use the pre-primed boards only. They are finger jointed and are a lot straighter than the regular pine boards but $$$. I used where I needed 12 footers. The 12' pine at Lowe's was terrible. Also a couple 16'. They only had two in stock though.

My completely gutted and drywalled my first house. I'd rather pay $300 for the trim. Even for one room.

Got the first coat of primer on. Forgot how much bare drywall soaks up. Used 1 1/2 gallons.

Accent wall done. Self adhesive wallpaper. Project Managers idea. I give it six months before it peels.

I like it! The accent wall will make the room look longer. Nicely done.

I set the baseboard up 3/8'' for carpet tuckage. Since we put in linole....... um..... hardwood floors. I had to get some 3/8''x 1'' trim to close that gap.

They have the Uhaul loaded and should be here tomorrow.
