The Ceiling Is In!!

I finally did it.  I put the ceiling in Rosie!  Believe it or not I didn't need any help holding it up in order to attach it.  Don't look closely because it is certainly not a professional job and also its very dusty from the saw dust and dirt.  I put in all of the panels and trim this weekend and now ready to clean it to prepare it for painting.  
This view shows the trim.  I decided against using welting so I found some very flexible trim made out of balsa wood at Lowes.  I snapped in half by accident so had to be careful with the rest of it.  
I was also able to make a new front to the cabinet that sits above the dinette.  In the center of this cabinet I will place my light fixture.  I have had to engineer my light because the one I bought just wasn't practical but of course I wanted the look and so I had to customize it to fit my idea.  You will see it in a post soon to come. 
Bailey and I took time out to celebrate The Ides of March.  It's a day that my kids and I have celebrated since they were young.  Beware the ides of March!!  You should Google it if you don't know what it is.  

Bailey and I went and ate Mediterranean food in honor of the day.  Yummy!  A shout out to Ali Baba's at 51st and Yale....it was amazing!!
