    09.29.2009 The painting (priming) begins!

    Well, I am just ITCHIN to have something ACCOMPLISHED! So this weekend i started the priming of the rooms. The little bathroom and the 3 bedrooms are all textured. We taped the floors/windows - did a little sanding and then got to it! This is truly a "family project" so we let the kids help. Bubba was more interested in playing outside so just sis helped. Steven (Erick's friend) has been helping out at the house for the past couple of weeks and even Erick graced us with his presence for a couple of hours. All in all - pretty productive. We got the bathroom primed and 95% of Sis' room. Who knew it was so much work? Apparently i forgot bcuz i was thinking i could get all 4 rooms done in 1 day. LOL. Hilarious!


    Did i mention how awesome it is to have a helper that is 6 foot 5in ?!!!


    Sis starts the trim in


    Painting is FUN


    Steven does the hard parts without a ladder even!

    **The sad part of this story is 1 day later holes had to be cut in the bathroom (which = patch/texture/re-prime) and in Sis' closet to find the leak in the plumbing for their shower. So even though progress was made - more work is to come.
    I'm NOT giving up though...just a minor setback!
