Further domestic adventures

Busy weekend! Am very tired, and would like an actual restful weekend at some point, as that hasn't happened for about two months, and the constant go-go-go thing of work + house stuff is really starting to wear me down. Perhaps next weekend, maybe, since M and I will want to spend time together before he heads to PDX for T-day week with his fam.
Finished out the wall-hanging project mentioned yesterday. Still a few more little ones to go here and there, but the big stuff is all up, and really helps make the house look more finished. Oh, and The Llama has returned to his rightful place! (Some of you may remember him from the old house. If not, well, he'll say howdy next time you're here. ;))
Also added another bookshelf set to the wall o' books, and emptied a few more book boxes, which helped me tidy up the Harry Potter closet somewhat. M and Mitch got the lighting in the theater done yesterday, and I finally put away my vinyl, and tidied up the place. A couple more wall hangings in there and that room will be officially done!
Got a few more projects done in my office--old files packed away, new file drawer set up, etc., though it still needs quite a bit of work. It won't really be in any presentable condition until I get a big bookshelf in here, and that's some time away, unfortunately, since it's a cash outlay we can't afford at the moment.

Sort of getting used to my new phone. I do like a lot of things about it. The camera is great, though it does need a lot of light. Still don't like the onscreen keyboard, mostly because of how it's configured, but I'm adapting. I also had to kill its out-of-box display setup and go back to what I was used to, because I hated having to scroll everywhere to get what I needed. A single, static display with all my critical data? Yes, please. Sheesh. I'll spend more time playing with it and see how I really like it. Not ready to chuck it or anything, but aside from the camera, the only thing I'm liking about it v. my old phone is that, well, the car charge function isn't broken (hence why I picked up a new one.)
For now, sleep beckons...
