doggone tired...

>
(maggie trying to keep her little eyes open
long enough to catch a little general hospital;)

well, d-day saw a whole truck load of treasures go to the dump!!!

in the process i have completely cleaned out a whole room in my house,

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

the room started out as an office for when i did contract work.
it was then turned into katherine's nursery.
lastly, it was a guest bedroom
and where the cats hung out most of the time.

right now, as i said, it is empty...

completely empty!!!

however, katherine has her dibs on it;
and, as soon as i finish painting it
(yes, "finish", as in i've already started on it:)
it is going to be a den.

the "kat den" to go with the
"kat cave" (a term of endearment katherine and her friends call her room).
the two rooms are separated by katherine's bathroom
(i guess we could refer to it as the "kat loo",lol...
which i am also going to paint.

i hope to have all three rooms finished by monday or tuesday.
the painting shouldn't take long;
but i also want to clean the hard wood really well
before moving furniture back into the "kat den".
and the tile in the "kat loo" could use a little elbow grease
as well!!!

i will tell you what...
this is by far the most i've done in a long time.

and, i'm tired!!!

doggone tired!!!

but, it is a good tired:D


love and blessings,
dani xx

Hi Dani,
While I was watching that video my thoughts went to, "no, not the dog". You had mentioned that you had completely cleaned out whole room. You must have done a great job as you were pleased with your achievments. Good on you. Sounds like Katherine would like the kat den as well as the kat loo and the kat cave. Why not, growing girls need all the room they can acquire.
I am up late tonight as I have just figured out how to add a few features to my blog.
Love Lucy XXXXOOOO

Cute dong for sure.

I am so proud of your accomplishment. YOU GO!!.. I am right there with you. I can't wait to keep going. I am sore today, that is how fast and furious I am making this time to get dejunked while the family is a way. You motivate me. Thanks.

Have fun and good luck with the wood floors. Yes we are Martha Stewart Divas, only nicer right.

Busy, busy, busy, that is you! I actually have a little home improvement project of my own going on right now. We have lived in our new house 3 years now and I have never really done anything with my bathroom. So I am doing it now. I would be more specific, but I imagine I will probably blog about it when I am all done, and, you know how positively WORDY I can be. so I will just say for now, GOOD FOR YOU DANI!!!!
Keep it up, you are inspiring me!

:D
Hopefully it won't be too hard of work. Painting is one of those things that I tend to have a love/hate relationship with... I can't wait to get it done because of the final outcome, but then I hate having to go and do it alone:/
Haha
If you need any help with it, you know where to fine me :D

Hannah

Maggie must have been busy helping, as she looks really tired too!! It's a hard life being Maggie:)
I bet it feels good now that the job is on it's way to being done.
Don't work too hard tomorrow!

Cleaning and painting? That sounds like way too much work for me. Good luck!

Wow. Cleaning out an entire room? That's tough work. I'm going to clean/paint mine in a few weeks and while I'm looking forward to the brand spanking new cleanliness of it all, I certainly don't want to actually DO the work.

Be sure to post pics of the final product!!

dani said...

a WHOLE room, caitlin!!! and, i emptied it all by myself (including breaking down the bed, matress, box springs, etc...
i will post when all is completed:D
love,
dani

Dana said...

Welcome to the world of projecting. :) Well, I guess I shouldn't say it that way. You and my hubby are the ones doing all the projecting, I'm just the little old keeper of the kids, cleaner of the house, and maker of the meals... :) I actually did get up on the roof the other night - while a thunder storm was blowing in no less - and helped put tar paper on the roof. I know - I so rock! :)
Just got caught up on your posts. Trips into your head are always entertaining, humorous, and enlightening. :) Love my visits here. :)
