Early present

My friend Steve does a lot of side jobs for homeowners.  Painting, repairing something, building something, whatever.  As a Christmas present, he offered to paint the wall going up the steps and the upstairs landing for me to finally match the living room.  He came over Sunday to get some stuff set up and wipe down the walls, and tonight, he's here doing some of the actual painting.  I'm sooooo excited to get this completed!  It's even better that I'm not doing any of the work.  I'm ready for the house to REALLY start coming together.  Pictures to follow soon.
