STRIPPING, STRIPPING AND MORE STRIPPING

....WALLPAPER that is...
GOOD gravy. Wallpaper needs to be outlawed!!!
I still do not quite see light at the end of the tunnel yet. Although we have 3 rooms primed and ready to paint. We are finishing up the wallpaper tear down. I think at this point I am going to have to completely finish one room just to have a sense of accomplishment. We still have about half or more of boxes still not emptied. Slow wins the race right?
Cheers!

PAINTING THIS WEEKEND

ONE of these days i will have some artwork to share with you all!
This weekend is painting weekend. Mostly priming. Color paint will come soon I hope. we still are living out of boxes while we are still cleaning and scrubbing and fixing things. The rest of the furniture will be moved in this weekend also. So we are on our way... slowly. Working full time while trying to move into a house is exhausting!
Cheers!

whoop whoop INTERNET BABY!

Came home from work today and internet and home phone are in working order!! yeehaa!!!
I am going to spend a couple of mins looking at your blogs then I will have to get back to unloading boxes. We are leaving after work tomorrow for a dance competition in Louisville KY and wont be back until Sunday so no chance to unload boxes, get things in from the garage. I just cant seem to create or cook when boxes are all around. we are have canned Chicken Noodle Soup and grilled cheese for dinner! HA I am ready to be normal again. However it will still be a while yet.
Have a great weekend!! If your in TN it is supposed to be really nice like 60's!!!
Cheers

No Internet

well, we are all moved it. everything is in boxes. we really needed to wait til the carpet gets put in until we moved furniture or whatever around. so everything is piled in the basement, kitchen or dining room or where ever there is hardwood! cleaning has been a MASIVE project. this house has been empty for over 6 months and apparently the previous owners did not take very good care of it. we still do not have the t.v. or internet hooked up!! (i am on the computer at work shhhh... dont tell anyone!) dosnt matter really, we have way too much to do when we get home from work to worry about either! so anyway just wanted to pop in and say i hope to visit you all soon!!! the carpet is supposed to go in today! we will be able to move things around but we have to go out of town this weekend so NO work on the house! arrg. thanks for the visit and well wishes!
Cheers!
