I know! It’s been a while

So the move from hell continued. We finally closed October 27 and it’s been tough ever since. We’ve been painting for the last two weeks which basically means shifting boxes, dogs, and humans from room to room. We can’t unpack anymore until the painting is done! So, we aren’t too comfortable at the moment.

The good news is: the bedrooms upstairs are done. We get to sleep in a bed! One’s own bed should never be overrated. And we can watch tv in the evening as we await getting our family room back.

Everything is going white or pale blue currently. Although, when we paint the kitchen (to be sprayed while we are in Florida this winter) I’m going to do navy on the base cabinets and bright white on the uppers. I’m craving clean and crisp just now. Just need to be careful we don’t make it too cold feeling.

Going to share a few “befores”. You’re just going to have to wait for some “afters”.

Not too bad. But the beige chair on the left is blocking the dining room.
Family room is primed. Was a dark gray.
The library blue needs to be corrected. A little too 9 year old boy for me. Will go lighter and slightly grayer.
The chaos in the living room…
Paint done here. Decorating can begin soon.

That’s it for today. Trust me, more mess will come. But, hopefully, it’s going to look great eventually.
