Go, Go, Go. All Day Long.

It's almost 9:30pm, and this is the first chance I have had to sit down all day.  I woke up and started painting, which took me all day.  Hopefully I can get some pictures up soon.  I actually remembered to take before shots so you will be able to see how much better it looks now.  I still have so much to do before the BOA people come on Sunday to check out the house.

Tomorrow, I will only have the morning to clean because we have therapy in the afternoon and I want to try and do some clothes shopping after that.  I still haven't found anything I like in the stores, and I am getting discouraged.  So before therapy, I have to get the living room finished.  The new furniture is together, but I still have to get the rest of the room cleaned.  I checked online for some furniture cleaning tips so I can get the couch looking fresh.  Bob sleeps on it every night, so it's a little flat.  I need to find a way to fluff it up a bit.  I don't have to worry about round rock carpet cleaning because all the floors in my house are the fake hardwoods.   I do have to dust all the elephants, which takes forever.  I also have to clean the hamster cages.  If I get to feeling really ambitious, I might even look into air duct cleaning do it yourself .  Or maybe not.  I think that would be the maintenance guy's responsibility. 


For now, I am going to relax before I hop in the shower.  I have so much paint in my hair, it's going to take me a while to get it all out.

Sounds like a very busy day ahead of you! If you get bored...i'm around from 930ish till 1 ish... then I gotta get the kids. Have you tried a store that sells foam? Maybe cut some to put under the cushions on the couch? even one of those egg crate things might work!

Very good looking, great job. This has me thinking I need to treat mine soon. I was a bees wax to protect them from water and grease.

I'm sure everything will look perfect. I have the same problem with our couch but Phil sleeps on mine. We bought a foam mattress pad and placed it under the cushions. It did fluff them up and there isn't a big pit there anymore.

Tammy ~ my friend Trish suggested the same thing, and we looked in walmart...I think once I figure out the size I need, I might go ahead and get it.
