Day... whatever!

AGGGGHHHH!!!! I'm so tired of the mess!!!! It seems like I get one room done, and the girls have trashed another, so then I straighten up that one, and then we fill it up with stuff again!


We spent about $400 in Fairbanks yesterday on bookshelves, computer chairs, a carpet for the playroom, and shelving for the girls closets. Which means instead of spending the weekend putting our stuff away, we spent it putting together the storage so we can put our stuff on it. Needless to say, we haven't been able to clean because we've made a bigger mess putting the stuff up! ACK!


And I'm tired, and my back hurts, and I'm tired... so we got the shelves up in the closets (but I'm not taking pictures because we've already put junk on the shelves!) We got both the computer chairs put together (one for the scraproom) and one of the bookshelves... Dustin is putting the other one together as I blog... hehehehe!


And look what my lovely husband did today as I was totally unmotivated to do anything but cook! LOL! Seriously, we had breakfast and lunch and I did the dishes, but I didn't want to leave the kitchen today!


Here is our master bedroom. Now, I know the before picture doesn't really look that bad, but TRUST ME!! Over the last few days it was a 'catch all' room and you couldn't see the floor, much less get into the closet. I crawled over clothes and linens to get to bed and have been wearing jamas out of my dresser as I couldn't get to my closet to find real clothes!

My closet... seriously, you couldn't even get in here before! And the clothes were on the floor in the bedroom, not hung all nice. The only thing I had to listen to from my husband was "You have way too many clothes, and look at all these shoes!!! You cannot possibly need this many shoes!! Why don't we get rid of some!" LOL! You'd think he'd learn after how many moves... and I've actually downsized my clothes and shoes!

And the master bath - which has been done since we got in the house, but this is what it looks like :)

It is shaping up nicely. Your new home has outstanding possibilities by adding some accents with color. Seeing the closets before you were done cleaning reminded me of your teenage years - woo hoo. Work a little - rest a little. That's my motto. Please take care of yourself Leta - precious cargo on board. Give everyone a hug and kiss for me - Love, Aunt Phyllis
