One Room Done!!

[Janet]

Ladies...I have one room totally done. While my son is at camp, I painted and cleaned his room. It looks so nice. He had it this green color and even though I didn't like it...it's what he wanted so I let him have his space.

Well, he hinted when I told him I was going to paint my bedroom that his needed it too "probably." So it is now a soft white and looks so clean and crisp. I hope I can keep up the momemtum and keep painting.

My bedroom needs it so bad and both bathrooms. So, maybe I can get a another room painted before they get back on Saturday...we'll see.

I sure was sore Monday night. After I got done painting, I took my shower and had my supper. I sat in the recliner to watch a little TV and felt fine, but tired. When I got up...I didn't know if I was going to make it....every muscle in my body was screaming out in pain. I even got up once in the middle of the night to take an ibuprofen. Feeling pretty good now, but I'd better keep moving or I'm sure I will stiffen up...LOL....man I hate getting old.

Janet, sounds like you're getting lot done. So nice that you have the time off to do things like that. Don't forget to post pics when you are done!!

[HALEY]

oh janet, know what you are going thru, we just scrubbed the walls down and painted all the rooms again, back in February, i remember scrubbing walls till midnight while Micah was sleeping! YUK!!!

Janet you are getting lots done without the boys home. I bet its nice and quiet, and you can just do whatever you like.. Enjoy it!! But don't over do it..

(You're not getting older, you're getting better and maybe just a little bit slower)

I love doing things like this. It's almost like a fresh start
Great job, you have definitely been keeping yourself busy

My living room needs a nice mellow earthy color. I have been looking at white textured walls too long, you may have just lit the fire under me with inspiration lol

The bedroom looks great - we have some painting that we have to do but I just can't get motivated to get it done.

[Janet]

I know what you mean Dobie, I had the 'want' to get it done...just not the motivation. Once I got started though, I was ready to keep going. I want to start again on Monday with my bedroom, but I may wait till Wednesday....I don't like being interrupted doing this kind of thing and I have to take mother to the Dr. on Tuesday. I would really like to have it all done by the time school starts again in Aug.
