He tried to minimize the "funk" by keeping the door closed and that didn't help. He opened the windows. No, not much better. We opened the doors. Nope, it still stinks in here. We all left the house for 5+ hours. Still smells like a toxic lab in here. I hope the smell is better at the other end of the house or I might have to sleep on the back porch with the mosquitoes!
We still have to remove the ceiling fan before we can disassemble the ceiling grid. Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time to tackle that project before we left the house. That should be relatively easy and something that we can tackle after work one night this week.
We are making tiny baby steps towards our goal!

Congratulations on de-sticking the walls. I can relate after what I went through with floor prep last year.
But maybe you should stay at your mom's. Or ... send Skaterboy to his mom's, check into a hotel and celebrate an almost two-year anniversary ...
Congrats on the de-goop!!! Clearly, you deserve some new shoes over this accomplishment!
NV - Mom's is too crowded. ;-) There are 3 whole people in that house this weekend! But you might be on to something about sending Skaterboy away....
Ann - Not that I need much prompting to buy new shoes, but you are right - new shoes would make me breathe so much easier!
I will pass along a little philosophy I have that I recently gave to your MEF. Any progress is good progress. Be proud! You are doing great - not to mention much more than most people do in a day. Celebrate your success, no matter how minor it may seem.
ty'smommy - Thanks for the encouragement. Now the challenge is to keep moving. We kind of have a tendency to stop and celebrate our small successes and forget that we still have 10 more steps to go!
