Messy Business



Our home remodeling adventure has definitely been an experience. Just last night we found out that the patio door we ordered 2 weeks ago (might I add that we were told on Sat. would be here on Tuesday) will not be arriving b/c Lowe's doesn't sale them anymore.
What??????? Funny this wasn't mentioned earlier.....like after we had initially ordered it and paid for it or at least sometime SOON after.

Needless to say, customer service will be receiving a call from a not so happy pregnant woman who spends WAY to much time and money in their store.

Enough angry ranting, now to the happenings as of late:


We have been prepping our house for carpet to be installed very soon. I will not say when it will be installed b/c I don't want to jinx us. Seems that we have run into some obstacles over the past few days, so I'll just be positive and say "soon we will have new unsmelly carpet".

To do so, we have:


- Emptied Bedrooms (into living room and dining room)


- Scraped the Popcorn Ceiling


-Applied Mud and Tape if needed...and Sanded


- Textured/Texturing



- Received MUDDY feet

We have completed two rooms with new texture, just two more to go. Hopefully, the last two bedrooms will be ready for paint tomorrow...as I have rounded up a posse of ladies to help me paint them.

Here's being Optimistic throughout all the obstacles that lay around us.

Looks like things are moving along. I'm excited to see it when it is all done.
