Floored! (Part the Ninth)

Recipe for happy Goddess:

• Take promising 10x12 room on the second floor of a ninetysomething-year-old house.
• Rip out unpromising, paint-stained wall-to-wall carpet and discover even less promising tongue-and-groove fir and structural repairs of uncertain providence.
• Sigh heavily and take a couple of measurements.
  
• Over a period of four years, dismantle subfloor in sections; reinforce and level joists; create new subfloor with ¾" plywood, one 2'x4' section at a time.
  
• Paint the plywood.

• Pop open a bottle of mead and sigh heavily... This time in satisfaction.

Stay tuned for Season Five of Springy G's Study! I don't expect it to take another four years to install the drop ceiling, track lighting, panelling and bookcases...

...Because I now have somewhere solid to stand while I'm doing those renovations.
