The Second Floor Debacle

Because there were a couple of slight mistakes on the ground level, putting in the second floor was challenging, at best.  And it would only get worse as I moved up.  I knew this and tried several things to make it fit like it was supposed to.  In the process of adding the second level, I opted to NOT add the stairs (that was way more trouble), but I had already punched out the hole in the floor.  Not an easy fix to say the least.  The worst of my problems came when installing the windows.  The openings were not level and the construction took forever, including a complete removal and fresh install THREE TIMES.  I learned quickly that I was not a fan of those windows.  You can see in the pictures that I had some alterations on the second floor layout.  At first I was just going to have two room (nursery and master bedroom).  After much thought, I changed my mind and added the bathroom.  I switched the walls around and made it a little more custom for my desires.  I also chose to use custom trim on this level, and real tiles for the floor and wall in the bathroom.  The trimwork was terrible and needed much wood filler to help smooth things out, but eventually I got there.  The interior is not totally complete.  More pictures to come, I promise.
