This is probably the first time I've sat down all day.
We wanted to focus on the house today and although we got a bunch done, the house still looks like a pig's stye. We also had to run a few errands. One which involved spending a small fortune on a new washer and dryer(panic attack spending the money). We got the front loading ones so we can build a countertop over them. We now need to sell our other washer which is practically brand new. I might try to sell it on craigslist in charleston, since thats where it is.
The bathtub had glass doors which were gross. They also made it hard to get in and out, so today we ripped them out! I was worried the tub would be hard to clean, but it wasn't. Everything came clean easily. We bought a new shower head, curtain rod and just the clear curtain until we find our nice cloth ones. The bathroom already looks 100% better.
The babe has been sleeping in the guest bedroom because we painted his room, but today we moved everything in. It still needs some paint touch ups, which we'll get to in the next few weeks and the shoe moulding which will hopefully get done soon. Its not decorated yet and I'm not digging how everythig is situated, but we just wanted it all moved in. The room is much bigger then I thought it was. I got all the outlets covered because today he was less then an inch away from jamming a screwdriver in there. Yes, I'm a bad mom...tell me something I don't know...LOL.
I've got some of the cabinets lined with contact paper and the kitchen is slowly, but surely, coming together. Well, atleast being organized. It looks like shit with the dark cabinets. I plan to paint them white. I hate painting so I'm always putting it off. I need to paint lots of things!
Lee is cleaning right now. That's very rare and it's very nice. ;)
Does anyone get excited about certain things? Material things that just shouldn't get you that excited? I have a bench that is covered in a very retro floral, vinyl fabric. It looks as it might have gone in a diner or something. I had it in my old diningroom and it was cute. I have decided to paint it black and cover it in the same material I did my chairs in. There is a perfect spot in our new diningroom to put it and I JUST CAN'T WAIT! It's going to look so good, plus that's 2 extra seats at the table. I want to find a "last supper" print to put above it. I told my mom that I wanted one and she got very excited and is on a mission. She's thinking religiously, I'm thinking art and controversy......what better piece to put in a diningroom? I love the look.
Well, I am pooped. I'm gonna get ready for bed and watch the boob tube!
