Can winter be over, please?

We have a Nor'easter headed our way tonight. They're calling for 6-12 inches, depending on which local channel I'm watching, and blizzard conditions tonight into tomorrow morning. Hubby has been working a lot of overtime and fortunately, had off this weekend for once. But unfortunately, he has to work tonight at 8pm!!! I won't be able to sleep until he gets home and hopefully, he doesn't have to work too long. He thinks he may be done after 2-4 hours, but conditions will very likely be bad on his way home....

I will probably stay home from work tomorrow. Stinks I have to take a vacation day, but I could use one anyway. And hubby will be home too.

Since hubby didn't work most of this weekend, we finally got back to work on the house. We started in the dining room and what is essentially our foyer. Our side door that leads into the kitchen at the back of the house is our main entrance. We have a front door in the living room, but it's not used that much. So, we enter into the kitchen, which goes into the dining room.

Can't believe we've been here over 2 months now....here's a sample of our progress. As you can tell, it's been slow.

January 17th...notice far right wall is intact....ugly but intact with a lot of wallpaper still attached. I have no idea why the wall underneath is the color of hospital scrubs. One of the many mysteries of this house.

Today...T has to tear most of the scrubs-green wall down because it's buckling. The original plan was to patch just parts of it with drywall. I wish he decided he was going to tear it all down before I peeled wallpaper off for, what felt like, hours. He finished skim coating the near right wall (and others not pictured).
