house fix up

WE finally have finished up the living room and dining room of the house. we patched holes took tack strips down ,taped, mud and sanded, painted and put wallpaper up and trim. Then had new carpet put down and flooring from the front door through the dining room into the kitchen and on to the back door. Whew are we exhausted and are ready to put remodeling on hold for a little while and catch our breath , or at least get out from under the dust for awhile.
     The house feels so different. seems bigger ( is that possible).  the kids came over and helped us move some the furniture around. we wouldn't have moved things there but we love what they did with it.
