This has gone a little too far....

OK so now I am dreaming about tiling. And worst of all I am tiling badly. Trying to decide what furniture goes in what room. The art on the walls. The color of the walls. All the work that needs to get done and who is going to do it. I think escrow exists to drive people insane. The neurotic thoughts just won't stop and we have 3-5 more weeks of waiting.
So my brain hurts...

Time to Start on the Garden

So now that the house is basically done. I am not sure if a home is ever really complete but for now no major projects inside. I decided to start on the front yard. It is lacking in curb appeal...

We have had some household changes with the addition of my wonderful father in law moving in. I feel bad because I struggle to ke...

The Bathroom this Weekend or Else!!!

We started the bathroom Jan 21st and today is March 4th. It has been functioning as a bathroom since the 25th I need this room to be finished. the is the goal room this weekend. The walls have the final coat of mud on. The final sand can be done when the mud is dry. Then it can be primed than painted and all of the lighting can be reinstalled. That leaves the molding, window and door frame to be put up and painted. Can it be done? I hope so. Oh and then I can decorate. It is our only themed room... London is the theme. This is the shower curtain...
