Remy's Room.........COMPLETE!

Well, I managed to get the room completed.  
We tried to follow the Option Institute's suggestions on what to do.  
Despite protests/warning from flooring specialists, I found 
someone at Home Depot to give me some advice and I installed vinyl right 
over Remy's old play mats.  If it breaks, it breaks.  It's not meant to be a 
permanent floor.  So far, so good.  It's still there and it's lots of fun to slide on. 
 It was the first time I installed flooring, so if it gets wrecked, I'll do a better job next time.

I purchased a double sided mirror and I found a local handyman 
named Shawn to install it in the door.  I was going to attempt it, 
but the door is hollow, so I was a bit worried that I would wreck it.  
Shawn did an awesome job, and he charged me very little for
the work.  If anyone out there needs a handyman, just let me know.  
I'd recommend him highly.

So, with that done, some patching of holes, minor priming, touch
 up paint, put our biggest mirror up, remove closet doors, install 
a second shelf, and run a wireless webcam, Remy's Room is 
finally complete.  Kim and I feel awesome that we have moved
forward with the program.
