Stages of grief

...or, how one room nearly ruined my life.

Stage 1: Denial 

Moving in, May 2011

Stage 2: Anger

Wood floors, June 2012

Stage 3: Bargaining

Selling the giant couch (for nothing, it turns out)

Stage 4: Depression

Removing chair rail, respackling x 3, and painting. Are we making it worse?

Stage 5: Acceptance

BOOM.
