Mixed and poured subfloor

I decided to mix the concrete for our old bedroom subfloor myself as I had lots of bags of leftover sand and stone which I wanted to clear away. The volume ended up being more than I thought. I ended up shoveling 2.8 tons of cement, sand & stone (1:2:4) into the mixer, then barrowing it into the room and leveling it (I forgot to add the weight of the water, so it was a bit more than 2.8 when mixed) .

The good part is I have a lot less materials on the driveway and I was able to get to the front wall to start painting it. I will post a picture of the front wall later.
