The floors are finished and they are everything I had hoped they would be. Perhaps everything I feared too, as I worried that they may be too bright, and there are moments, usually brief, when they shock my eye. But overall, I am happier than I anticipated being, and I am thrilled with they way the colors in the floor marry all the disparate elements in the three rooms creating a much more harmonious whole, a much brighter, more harmonious whole.
Now just to get the furniture back, the bookcases rebuilt and all the little details settled.
