We decided to do some more upgrades to the house. Around this time of year, Thanks to "The Man", we get little money back from the goverment. Normally we'd throw it back into some debt but we decided to throw a little toward debt and a lot into upgrades. We feel like we deserve it since we work so dang hard. So we decided to paint three rooms upstairs, put in new carpet, and get all new appliances for the Kitchen. I'm very excited about this. Especially since everything in this house is as old as I am. And since we have family living in our basement for free we decided to use what resources we had and put 'um to work. Our first job, take down the hideous wallpaper in the second bedroom. We were able to get three days of work into 8 short hours with their help. Just include a free lunch, drinks, and endless tunes you can sing to and a lot of great things can happen!

After the wallpaper came off we had to scrape off all the glue. Yummy!
There was glue snott flying everywhere.

ReplyDeleteOh, I can't wait to see it all! You guys blow me away that you have the patience to put so much work into your home. "The Man" just hopes you're done before we get there. Translation: He doesn't want to help. ;)
ReplyDeleteVery cool! It's nice that you have the help too. It's always more fun with help. Ewww to the wall snot.
ReplyDeleteI love how secure you are in yourself that you can post butt shots with humor. I love it! Seriously though, when are you going to come redo my condo?
ReplyDeleteNice work! And I wanted to tell you how darling your Valentine's Day gift was. I'm calling you for suggestions next year.
