I have been up to my elbows in yard work and paint. I have vacuumed and rearranged furniture, and I am not done yet. (Special thanks to our dear Grandma Jen who washed walls and scrubbed a stove top and did SO much laundry while I was busy with the other stuff!)
Just to show you some of my most recent projects:
The master bathroom (before)
In the process
Finished!
I also redid the front bathroom. I can't find a before photo, but it had the same cabinets and floor as the master bath before. But now:
I also created a patio place, and we love it! Grapes is out here reading ALL the time.
I'm sad I didn't think of this three years ago when we moved in.
So as we near the day of actually LISTING this house, I find myself hoping someone will see it and want it.
Let's be honest, I'm also hoping I'll find a house that I want in our new town too.... but we'll take one blessing at a time over here. We're not selfish.
AND just to leave you with a laugh...
This is Sockie's school paper that came home a few days ago. The object described is bigger than a pencil, smaller than Sock, heavier than a straw and lighter than Sock.... and this picture had me really worried.
Did my monkey draw and describe a poop at school?!? How do you face a kindergarten teacher after that one?!
So I carefully asked him what he had drawn.
"It's a big block from the play spot at school, Mom."
A block?! Oh-- of course. How could I miss that?
