Progress Report

To gauge how much progress is being made we have a 230 item task list of things we need to accomplish before we are all done. Some tasks will take a few hours, some a few days. But, each time a job is complete we check it off. The list is not all-encompassing, because we began it well into our part of the project. But it is a great motivator. It feels wonderful to add the little check marks. We missed a lot of tasks when the list was first made, so we add to it when we think of those things. Even though the list grows longer day by day, the check marks outpace the additions. Every few days we do the math and see what percent of the project is done. Right now we are at 38%.

There are 40 tasks to be done for the main floor bathroom. We only have 7 left to go.

It will take about five days to get just one check mark; "install wainscoting," perhaps by the end of the week.

When it is installed, it may only take a day of work to check off "paint wainscoting."

Finished this Tuesday. Repairing the cracks in the plaster walls and ceiling, and painting the ceiling and walls allowed us to check 3 things off.
