Okay, the list is getting more manageable…

Posted on by

It’s only 11pm, and it’s clearly going to be another night of not sleeping. However, since I’ve slept very well every other night this week, I’m not complaining, I’ll use it as a chance to organize myself a wee bit…

SO. From the first posting of this on September 12th, this list has had a lot of stuff marked off, more stuff added on. All in all, getting stuff done:

    • Wallpaper!! AAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!
      Oh my God! In our last house, my wife and I tried to do that in the bathroom, and it was a freakin’ nightmare!! The house was old, built turn of the century, and there were several layers of wallpaper, some painted over!! Man, did that stink.
      So…hmm, that really makes it sound like a crappy job, doesn’t it…sorry about that! Come to think of it, we were ripping out a cabinet at the same time, so maybe that’s what made it so miserable…Hopefully, you’ll have a great time, and it’ll go like clockwork!
      That’s a great icon, by the way!

        Hehe, thank you, I think it’s a T-Shirt, but the big eyes, it’s a try for the innocent effect 😉
        We tore wall paper down in our master bathroom, and yes, it was a nightmare. It was the only layer, but it really took forever and we pulled off drywall, it was horrible. On top of that, I thought this beautiful shade of peach would look great on the walls, however, when you took a picture of it with the sun coming through the windows, it looked a horrid shade of Peptobismol pink. NASTY!
        So, just recently, I picked a nice shade of silver leaf and it turned out fantastic for my black and white photos I hung on the wall.
        But my kitchen, oh horrid kitchen, it has the one layer of wallpaper the house came with in 1982. It’s birds and bamboo shoots. *crickets chirping in the background*. I have fabulous ideas for it. (One also including re-stripping the wood cabinets). As you can see, I’m trying to bribe anyone I can 😉
        I couldn’t imagine paint over layers of wallpaper. *shudders*
        Have a good day!
