It's a bit difficult not to compare the current remodel with my last one. Of course, that was a different magnitude--six weeks vs. 18 months. Back then I was trying to save everything I could; here I'm happy to send everything to the landfill. Then it was horse-hair plaster and hand-forged nails; here it's 1970s kitsch. Back then I was stripping wallpaper because it was not period appropriate; now I'm stripping it because it's ugly.
But back then I was creating a business, and now I'm creating a home. And that makes all the difference in the world.
