Yes, we're talking home improvement here folks. We're starting Day Three today (of five, if you clicked over to lovely hubby's fantastically organized daily schedule up there), and so far only a few items have had to be carried over from yesterday. When this all comes to an end, it will be magnificent. Glorious. Hallelujah, Joyful! A ceiling in our dining room is a luxury that we have not lived with for quite a long, long time. So, I have to keep telling myself to suck it up-- living with the kids on the second floor for a few days is a small sacrifice to make to have a finished first floor. Crown molding. Appropriate matching colors that don't make my eyes bleed. (FYI- choosing Chai Latte for your kitchen walls ensures that each and every morning you will be assaulted with color that screams at you like an overcaffeinated Starbucks junkie. Trust me, I know, it's been a few years.) Thanks to a wonderful friend who has helped us wade through a couple thousand paint cards, we should soon have a dining room, living room and kitchen with stylish wall tones that exude peacefulness in an otherwise rarely peaceful setting.
Day Three, bring it on. It's 7:30 in the AM, the kids haven't even woken up yet, and I'm sitting on my bathroom floor because it's the only room that isn't a state of remodeling or inhabiting a sleeping body. It's time to get this day moving. We have ceilings to sand and paint, and a kitchen to reassemble. Oh, did I say we? Yeah, I have kids to take care of while lovely hubby goes all DIY on our little house. Have I mentioned how much I love that Spackle Man lately?
Hoping for the next few days to FLY by,
