Remodeling highs and lows

Oh Ya'll....I haven't done a gosh darn thing all week in the master bathroom. I've looked at it. Stared at it in disbelief. Agonized over the dust and dirt still accumulating everywhere. Sneezed cause the dust and dirt are irritating my sensitive sinuses.

But Tuesday night we were so gosh darned tired and last night we had a bowling night with some folks from my work....so here we are and it's Thursday.

We did discover on Tuesday, though, that the paint color I thought I loved doesn't work as well as I'd hoped it would with the tile. It's too close to the same color. It makes the bathroom look too monochromatic for my taste. So...I'm tasking Shooter with going to Sherwin Williams tonight and getting two more paint samples to try. One's a shade darker than the current color and one's two shades lighter than the current one. If I like the darker shade I'll likely go with white furniture and if the lighter shade tickles my fancy I'll go with a darker wood furniture. Oh decisions decisions...

Tonight I get my toilet back....Praise be to Jesus!!!! Is that okay? To thank Jesus for the restoration of plumbing in my master bath? I think so...I've prayed hard that it would happen sooner than later! ;-)

Oh...and is it possible that the bathroom seems bigger now? Maybe it's not just the tile but the fact that all the crap got moved out of it. Ha! My bedroom feels like it's about the size of a crackerbox but my master bathroom feels like a cavern! Maybe I'll just relegate all my crap to one room in my house so that the rest of the house will feel huge! Wait.....I already do that.....it's called Shooter's Man Cave. ;-)

I'm going to be a woman on a mad cleaning spree this weekend. I just hope that the new "happy" pills the doc gave me will keep me on an even keel. They didn't do so well last weekend and we're all afraid that I'm going to have to try another med...ugh! I just keep reminding myself that there's hope and my hope resides in my Jesus who'll get me through.

Happy Thursday Everyone!

I think I like the darker paint selection...

I have totally praised Jesus for the happy pills before, so I think he'd be all "You're welcome," about the toilet going back!

Good luck with getting everything finished up. It will be fabulous in the end. Hope the happy pills help too.

We haven't touched a thing around here this week either, so don't feel bad.

And I think Jesus is totally cool with the toilet prayer. Or at least I hope so. I pray to Him all the time that my daughter will start using one in the near future!

Have a great weekend!
