Living room renovation, new walls

A lot has changed since I last posted about my living room. Progress happened faster than I could take pictures of each step. I hope that no one is disappointed in missing some of boring stuff.

Walls are now insulated and have up to date electrical. The light switches were a challenge in themselves, and took most of one day to short the mess out. We added braces along the seam between where the panel boards stored and the drywall started.

We even finished putting up the drywall. Careful measurements were made to plan our attack to reduce the amount of extra work of added strips to screw too since some areas were not 16" centers. Dad has been in the process of mudding the seams and screw heads, one more final round off mudding and sanding and we can start to paint.
