Thanks for hanging out or hanging on waiting for me to post something...anything. Well, the painters are finally coming on Tuesday. They will paint the kitchen the Behr "Pensive Sky" which is still not "quite" right, but close enough after all these months of agonizing. The foyer, stairway and upstairs hall will have the wallpaper stripped, walls skim coated and be painted some kind of pale gold ( guess I need to get some real samples up tomorrow). It will take 3-4 days. Now I just have to get everything off the wall etc and find a place to put it until the mess is over. Did I ever tell you how much I hate having my house disrupted?? Something about the ADD brain I guess. Hopefully I will be back to posting something next week, OK?
Later,
Janet
True, having the house disrupted is really rough. It will be worth it, of course. We'll all still be here.

With the ADD-enhanced way I live, my house is always disrupted...good thing I'm the only one living here. Makes for lowered expectations. Have fun getting things paint-ready!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about having the house disrupted for painting!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you have done though.
I too am excited but can;t totally relate to the upheaval!
ReplyDeletephew! you're back! i cannot wait to see the kitchen, and know that you will be so happy when the hall/stairway is done, too! it will be worth the wait, mess, indecision, irritation. whatever. and what a cool christmas present!!jkj
ReplyDeleteHope you will soon have it all together again Janet - miss your hilarious posts, and just hearing from you dear friend.
ReplyDeleteUp to my ears in stuff, as always, but took time to attend a tea party in Aspen, CO today - such fun!
Oooo, but it will look so wonderful when they are finally done! Have fun, Janet! :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE a freshly painted room! It feels so clean & new doesn't it? Good luck with the disruption Janet, I know it will be worth it though! YES! I am going to see jackie at bliss farm this weekend. I'm making her some nice fresh pizzelles for her open house. have you checked her blog lately? some gorgeous photos of christmas decor. :) chris
ReplyDeleteI know it is all in disarray but I am SO envious you are getting so much prettifying done!
ReplyDeleteIt is hard to ready the house for painting but SO worth it in the end! I look forward to seeing it all done...hmmm...betting YOU are too! *laugh*
