Amateur Hour part 2

Ordered the kitchen countertop today (It will be finished, but not installed, by the end of the month. Missed that deadline!) We will drywall on Saturday. Rochelle seems to believe I can do this, but I'm not so sure. I've put in small pieces before. I've layered buckets of drywall mud over cracked and hole-pocked plaster walls. But I've never done a full wall where seams mattered, and electrical outlets and pipes had to be accounted for. Wish us luck.
Johnny says the place is starting to feel "cozy." I think that's stretching it, with bare stud walls, floors half-installed and several key conveniences missing (sinks, for instance). But it's becoming definitely house-like.
