Inspiration
I have a very dear friend named Sean Hamrock, who went to college for art, specifically photography. He managed to make it out to the house to help us out on one of the days I had a dumpster. He was invaluable, especially since he was the only person that weekend that came out to help us, and I am forever grateful to him for his help.
Not being one to miss a photographic opportunity, he took a picture of our living room mid-cleanup. This was the day that we took up the awful, menstrual-red carpet and found the evil green padding/dust underneath it. The stuff came up in chunks, alternating flaking and just turning to dust. It got everywhere, and we ended up scooping it up with snow shovels, because everything else we tried was useless.
So Sean decides to set a challenge for himself to post a picture every day on his website, and I finally get around to looking at it. Lo and behold, there's my living room, as the banner to the page. It might be just that the picture was at hand and rather wide-framed, but I can't tell you how unbelievably flattered I was to see it there. Whenever I find myself feeling like we're not making any progress, I can look at that and feel like I've gotten someplace. Please go look, if only to see his beautiful pictures.
