90 Days!

This is my 90th Blog....do I hear a drum roll? Music? Singing? Trumpets and Coronets announcing it's publication?
NO? Oh well....

Here is the way we found the guest bedroom. Drywalled, mudded, sanded and ready to prime.







We got in there and put graffiti on the walls!







Now it is fully primed and drying....waiting for paint. Don't you love the striping?
Not to worry, it dried smooth!





We have a system down when we paint. Dan starts with the edger and goes around the room cutting in at the ceiling and corners. I follow with the roller and put paint on the walls. Today was no different. He started with the primer ahead of me cutting in, then I rolled it onto the walls.

Once he got done in the guest bedroom, he proceeded to the master bedroom...













Voila!




Then he started with the master bathroom....





Done - I worked so fast you didn't even see me, did ya?





Check out the differences in color between these three photos!












I think this last one looks closest to the real thing, for a photo.
You will just have to come over and decide for yourself!


While I went downstairs and painted in the dining room (which I forgot to take pictures of until we were out of Ionia!) Dan patched a hole in the floor between the master bedroom and bathroom. That hole has been there almost since day one! It has annoyed us for 90 days! Now it is fixed - YEAH!







Tomorrow the bedrooms get measured for carpet. We are hoping it will be installed Monday or Tuesday....'cos we plan to spend the night there beginning Wednesday night. (we may be running to Mindi's for showers the first couple days) Dan is planning to start the shower floor Monday morning. It takes 24 hrs. of drying between two parts of the process...not sure what day we'll have it up and running!

Hey, it's an adventure, right?!
