Why did I sit down?

Oh what a day it has been!  I'm mildly exhausted, and still have a shift at work to do tonight, but the back room is done!  The floor is even swept.  No more cobwebs, all of the shelves are pretty much organized... Such a huge relief for me.  Now I can move on to the main room, which is the one I'm actually interested in re-doing... We just had to make room for all of the stuff I don't want in the main room, in the back room.
I was super ecstatic to have reinforcements today!  Randy came and helped for four hours, which was amazing.  Plus it was nice to have someone to look at and ask, "What the heck is this?"  (For example, Randy found an anchor... His theory is that we were afraid that the house might float away.)  And Dad even stopped by, did a little dance (I'm not even remotely kidding), took like twelve breaks (still not kidding... he even stopped to eat a sandwich when he hadn't done anything :P) and then managed to do some work (namely, throw out almost everything in the one closet.)
So it's looking like I might finish by my self imposed deadline of Friday, something I never should have mentioned to Uncle Kev, who is now teasing me mercilessly about how it better be done by then for us to do our walk through.  (Although he keeps saying walk about and last I checked we aren't Australian natives...)  But my even bigger mistake today was sitting down... I really don't want to have to get up and go downstairs to go to work.  It better be slow tonight.  That's all I'm saying.  If you have a sec, say a little prayer that I don't pass out at work, and somehow manage to make it to my bed tonight before sleep overtakes me.
I'll be back tomorrow with another update.  I promise to be a little more awake and slightly more amusing by then.  My mind just wants to nap currently.  Maybe nap for me too?
