Bathroom Redo Update

So, Thursday at lunchtime is when Aunt #1 and Tia are coming in for the Republican convention, and Husband and I are working like crazy to get as much done in the guest room as possible. I can tell that Husband really likes these ladies, because he only ever worked this hard on a fix-it when it was his own mother coming!

He was relieved to finish the steaming, peeling, picking -- but then found this under the open area of the vanity. Whoever built the house back in '78 picked this very fashionable print. The 70s and 80s were a terrible time for style. I know Husband was just dreading the possiblity that I may ask him to, "please, please, let's do it right." But instead I said, "Oh. *scoff* We're painting over that part."

He played it cool, but I know inside he was jumpin' up and down like a giddy little boy.



Here's where the bathroom stands tonight. It doesn't look it, but quite a bit got done this evening: priming all around, painting behind the commode and installing a new tank. It's so much easier to take on these big jobs with His help...I'm not sure he's saying the same about me though as I sit here blogging....ugh. Gotta go.
