I thought Labor Day was a break from work...
Well, its been a long weekend. Friday night I went to my first stamp camp with 2 of my neighbors...Kim and Brooke. They were so much fun. We made Christmas cards to take with us. It was so cool. Now we (Kim Brooke and I) have to decide when and where we are going to get together to make our Christmas cards.
Saturday morning I got up and undecorated the front bathroom.(Mom and I decorated it when she was up here last month.) I put a coat of primer on the walls in the bathroom, after I taped everything up,so I wouldn't get paint on the fixtures and the base boards. (Yeah, right)
Sunday we went to Champaign to do some shopping. We bought new cabinets and a counter top for the garage. New shelves for the walk in closet. While Jim and Doug went back to Champaign to exchange one of the cabinets, I cleaned out our closet. When Jim saw what the walls were going to look like, we decided we needed to patch holes. So at 10:30 pm we are patching holes.
Monday, I got up early...8:30, after snuggling with pups for about 30 minutes. Then I started on the bathroom again. 2 paint coats later, I am finally done with it. The only thing that is left is to put the wall plates back on. That will have to wait...I am going to get new ones for the bathroom. We are going to start changing things in the house one room at a time.
The only thing left to do today is sanding the closet. The rest will have to wait until tomorrow after work.
We called about a pool table Saturday. The seller called us back yesterday and talked to Jim. Jim seems to be interested. Will keep you posted...
Jim's mom and dad will be here on Friday. So I have to get the bathroom finished this week and get the closet done so we can get the spare bedroom cleaned out. Looks like its going to be a long week.
