Laura - good to hear that Tim is back up and running ALMOST back to normal.
If it makes you feel any better, I haven't touched Ally's scrapbook since she was 6 months old!!!! I did go through and organize all her pics and stuff, and I kept up her kindergarten scrapbook, but that's it. I need a nice rainy weekend to work on it. But I always find something else to do......
We got 3 walls painted in our bedroom - 2 coats on each, but just couldnt get to the 4th wall. It has the heavy armoire on it, and neither of us wanted to tackle that.
It's a really soft blue, looks white in the paint can. I'm going out tonight to get white sheer drapes for the windows, and black drapery rods. Then I may make a nice soft cornice over each window. Maybe a blue/white toile or something. And then if we ever get black distressed furniture in there, with a white comforter, I think it'll look cool. Jeff is getting different large shells, like a sand dollar and whatnot, at one of the Floriday tourist traps out by where he works, and I'm gonna mount them each in 11 x 14 black shadow boxes and hang over our bed.
The thing that sucks about redecorating are all the pictures and stuff that I have not use for now. Maybe I should put them on ebay. But I'm afraid that shipping would kill me! I do have a couple of beautiful prints from Charleston, SC, that are soft blues and whites that would look nice if I could reframe them. Maybe I'll head out tonight for new frames. I just really want to get this room done. It'll be one less thing to worry about.
Then we still have this ugly peach color in the living room and dining room. I'm just gonna tackle it one day when Jeff's gone and paint it something neutral. It's so ugly right now. He thinks it looks "refreshing." Y'all have no idea what his idea of refreshing is!
