My, it has been a cold one! My son had two "inclement weather days" last week, and the weekend wasn't much better. I'm such a weather whip!! But I did manage to get a few things done, and I also enjoyed a few evenings by the fire. Gotta mix some work with a little R & R, right?
Friday night was awesome sitting by the fire day dreaming while looking and pinning away on Pinterest. My younger son was home playing video games. I know sometimes we aren't always interacting very much, but it does bring me comfort just having him in the same room with me. At least I got him out of his room..lol. Actually, it is kind of funny and cute at the same time, but he loves for me to be with him, even if he has headphones on and he is doing his own thing. I hope that doesn't change too much as he enters his teenage years.
Now, on to the work part. If you can call it that, since I don't mind doing it in the least. It feels sooooo good to see progress! Last week I painted the downstairs half bath. I've been in my new house for 4 1/2 years and I only have two more rooms to go. I know, pretty sad that it has taken me this long. So here is my pitiful bath before

And here it is after painting last weekend.
Saturday I completed the painting part. I decided I wanted stripes on one wall. This room is right off the foyer so I wanted to use the same color I have in entryway. Home Depot did a custom match, but it turned out just a bit more gray than blue, but it looked close enough and I just went with it.
Now, on to my finish...or a sneak peak at what is done thus far....
