I started painting again!!
This time around it is my bedroom that is getting the makeover. And gracious sakes, it definitely needs it.
From the time my child (who is five years old!!) started walking at the early age of nine months old, my bedroom became the catch-all room of the house. We put our coffee table in there, the tread mill, any gifts bought for Christmas, birthday, etc. All laundry was sent to that room to be folded and put away...or put in a pile on that coffee table! Heirloom pictures, precious keepsakes, video camera, you name it, it has been "stored" in my bedroom. Some nights I feel lucky enough just to find a path to my side of the bed.
All of that is changing this week. I have the whole week off work and I have already begun to tackle the chaos in the room, sorted and cleaned and sorted again. The furniture will all have to stay...we are just not ready to have a coffee table in the living room again...and I am not willing to part with it for good and the treadmill needs to stay, but the clothing and the baby toys and what not are going, going, gone! There is fresh paint being applied to all the walls in a lovely shade called Fudgescicle, which really does look like melted chocolate ice cream as it is painted on the wall. And soon a new comforter, pillows and curtains will be on display as well. I am reclaiming my bedroom...it is a good feeling!
Pictures will be coming...just as soon as I get it all done...and let's all hope that is before turkey day...cause everyone is coming here..aghhhhhhhhh!
Living Happily in the Moment!
