Floor!
Astute readers probably noticed that I said I would write something every day in November, not post something every day. But I do want to try to post at least a few times a week, and it occurs to me that I never did update you all on the floor situation.
The update is: we're done!
The flooring is white oak, stained a medium red brown. Oak because I like it and the color to match the reclaimed redwood timbers in other parts of our unit. In the stairway photo, you might notice that our downstairs floors are maple; originally we had planned to do the same up here, but we got samples more broadly and when we hit on the idea of finding something similar to the redwood, I became quite enamored with it. I think it looks wonderful, although I'm still getting used to the difference between walking on it and carpet. But it's only really a problem at my desk, and I have a mat there for now to make it more ergonomic.
Most of the furniture is back in place -- we just need to reset some file cabinets and bookcases. Eventually we will get some area rugs by the desk and the bed, but we have to wait a bit -- the wood will change color over the next few months, and if we put rugs down now it might get patchy.
I am super excited to have this finished! And I'm so pleased with how it came out.

Thanks! I'll pass your compliments along to T, who did the vast majority of the work (with some vital assistance from Robert).
