Again Residence And Attempting To Regroup

We’re again house, y’all! I’m so sorry that I wasn’t right here yesterday with an replace. I do know lots of you have been involved about Matt based mostly on the feedback and emails I obtained, and whereas I had superb intentions of writing a quick replace simply to let y’all understand how he was doing, I simply couldn’t appear to get it collectively yesterday to make that occur.

Anyway, Matt is doing very effectively. He was within the hospital from about midnight on Friday night time till about 1:30 yesterday afternoon with a UTI that led to sepsis. It was a tough and exhausting few days as a result of, as I’m certain all of you realize very effectively, getting good sleep in a hospital is nearly inconceivable with nurses coming in each couple of hours, flipping on the lights to take vitals, swap out IVs, give meds, and so forth.

So by the point we left the hospital yesterday, I used to be so exhausted that I felt like I used to be strolling round in a dream state. I introduced Matt house, obtained him located and cozy, after which obtained us some lunch. By the point we have been completed with lunch, I couldn’t maintain my eyes open any longer, so I slept. Y’all, I took a 2.5-hour nap. On a Tuesday. I’m not a nap sort of particular person in any respect, however taking a nap on a weekday is unparalleled for me. However after 4 nights of horrible, interrupted sleep, I had no alternative.

Anyway, I wakened this morning hoping to be totally rested and able to go in order that I might get again to work on the lobby. I don’t really feel rested in any respect, and I don’t really feel able to get again to work, however I’m going to do it anyway. I’m so near being completed with the lobby that I’m hoping my pleasure about getting it completed will assist me make some progress right this moment.

So choosing up the place we left off final Friday, right here’s the punch record for what must occur to get this space fully completed. I have to…

• Transfer the cable for the router,
• Patch the little gap within the ceiling,
• Add the trim contained in the closet doorway to complete off the sting of the wallpaper…

• Paint one other coat of white paint on the lavatory/storage closet doorways,
• Set up doorknobs on the lavatory/storage closet doorways,
• Both reframe the chapel image in a bigger and extra eye-catching body or add sconces flanking the image,
• Sew the chook pillow,
• Add a brand new pillow insert to the pink pillow.

• End repairing the patched ceiling (sand, prime, paint),
• Add doorknobs/handles to the French doorways,
• Add privateness movie to the glass on the French doorways.

And apart from giving the world a very good cleansing (cleansing the ground, cleansing the air consumption vent, and so forth.), I believe that’s it! I made a decision to go away the partitions flanking the lavatory/storage closet doorways clean…for now. I actually love the view of that wall from inside my closet with simply the grasscloth and wainscoting. As soon as I get the lobby completed and get the closet cleaned up, I’ll present you that view.

Additionally, I purchased some candle sconces to check out with the chapel image. I’ll attempt these out and see if I like them higher than the sconces that got here out of our earlier bed room. After which I’ll see if I can discover a nicer, fancier body and see if I would like that higher than the present gold one. I sort of have my coronary heart set on utilizing sconces, however maybe I’ll really feel otherwise with a bigger, fancier body on the chapel image.

Anyway, I’m nonetheless extremely drained, and I’m discovering it difficult to get again into the swing of issues after these previous couple of days with Matt within the hospital. However I’m going to do my easiest to get refocused right this moment and make some progress. I would want heaps and many robust espresso to get me by way of this present day.
