One Room Done!!
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.

Good going Janet! Thank goodness for ibuprofen!
Pictures, please.... (You're not getting older, you're getting better and maybe just a little bit slower)

Your to busy..................But I know you get more things done when the gang is gone. I remember how it feels . When Dustin graduated highschool in 2006. We painted the whole outside of the house and most of the inside. Oh did I say we. I'm sorry I meant me.........lol Have fun and don't over do..........

Here are pictures of his room. I need to put some things on his wall, but haven't yet. Took some things down that were a little too 'young' for him now.
1.jpg 2.jpg 3.jpg Yesterday I got the boys bathroom all cleaned and painted. Today, I will need to put it back together again. I thought they were doing a better job of keeping it clean, but obviously I was wrong. It was a mess. Guess I will need to check it more often than I did.

Rick's room looks very nice! It definitely looks refreshed and I'm sure that he'll be very happy with it when he sees it. Good job, Janet!!!!

Thanks ladies. The bathroom is all done now and put back together. Can't wait for them to see it. Looks like a different bathroom...everything just sparkles. You can sure tell it was built in the 70's...how about that harvest gold toilet, tub/shower and sinks. I wish I had enough money to put it all to white...maybe someday I will.
1a.jpg 1b.jpg 1c.jpg I think I'm done till the guys get home. I hope Monday to start on my bathroom and bedroom. Right now, I'm so tired and sore, but I did manage to get the house back in order. It's amazing that when you clean and paint one room...it somehow makes the other rooms a mess too.

It looks great Janet! You really did a good job. If I ever tried to paint anything, I wouldn't be showing off pics cause I would mess the whole thing up! LOL

Nice job, Janet. Our first home had harvest gold sinks and toilet, too. I thought they were so pretty. The guys are going to be so happy when they get home and see their new home.
