It never ceases to amaze me how God will give me one quiet day before a huge day. He is so good that way. It's been a long process to date, and at time I feel very weary. You know when you just want it to be over. Well at least the wall paper removal. lol Yes, I said it. There is apart of me that says "please let's finish" then there is another part saying, "no lets just take the time to get it right." I actually have enjoyed seeing the transformation. I understand now why my gramps always had a side project: working with your hands is so therapeutic. Honestly!!!
I actually enjoy being tired from a good days labor. I can see and feel the accomplishments of the day.
There is just something satisfying about it.
However, if I could take 3 more months and get it just perfect, I would, but I can't. We need to move out of condo, so we are under a bit of a time crunch. So, we will do our best to get what we need accomplished and then move to our place.
It might be tents in the backyard or RV's in the front, but we will be home: Our home.
So we will see where today takes us.
Enjoy our journey and I will write more after today is over.

My mom dropped by for a little prework breakfast and coffee. She dropped off some moving boxes and we made her breakfast.

Secret Airplane Letter.
We throw that in the back yard hoping that the neighbors will read it and throw back our toys. Still waiting for this one.

Went to paint store to get primer.
Later that evening my mother and hubby, were bound and determined to finish all the dry wall in the house for the girls closet. I don't know how they did just yet, but when they awake I will tell you.
Here's were I left them.

I wasn't feeling well, so I took 2 of the kiddos and headed home. Meanwhile, my daughter insisted on staying and cleaning up for us.
We are preparing the walls to prime them for paint. How exciting.
