H just moved out, 13 months post-bomb

[glamgirl]

Dawn I understand the painting of the walls. H and I recently painted the kids rooms, hall and bath and they look fabulous. They were stark white before and all scuffed up. The paint just made the house feel more alive lived in and warm. We have yet to paint the master bath and bedroom. I am picking up more paint this coming weekend, since I have some coupons to save money that expire the end of this month.

H and I had no clue what we were doing, but when his parents saw the work we did they said very professional looking. We were pleased on the outcome, but it was really hard work. It sounds like you do need to spruce up the place. It can really help with your attitude and living life. Before I kept thinking how I hated the place. Now I am thinking I love it. It feels so homey now and I am more incentivised to keep our home cleaner if that makes sense.
