Well we messed this one up

So we are looking at our lovely little bathroom, with it's odd little shape. It's the only bathroom in the house and it's located on the second floor.
When we moved here we took out the pedestal sink, yes blasphemy I know! But I did have reasons! We have three children, so I wanted a double sink so at least I could get ready in the morning on they could brush their teeth. We also had to put in a shower as the P.O. only had a jacuzzi tub from 1982 in there. So we had an opening of 48 1/2 inches for a countertop sink and cabinet, which we custom ordered and installed.
Now we want to beadboard on top of the cedar carsiding to make it look more like a bathroom. The problem is then the sink a) wouldn't fit or b) the beadboard would overlap on top of the sinktop.
Yeah we didn't think that one through.

Hot Dang!

We have new flooring new furniture and I'm pooped!
The furniture got here before we got the flooring in, but oh well.
I love it! Now we just need the quarter round and we are good to go!
Here are some pics.

Our sofa is gone...

But hopefully we can get the new floor installed in the living since hubs sold the sofa. We currently are sitting on saucer chairs and the 4 yr old asks, where is the new couch at momma? It's coming dear. But when? When they can deliver it dear. But when? It will be a while. So in that while would be the PERFECT time to get the floor down in the living room....don't you agree?
Let's see if hubs agrees....

The Holidays Are Over

Thank goodness.
My dad had a heart attack shortly before Christmas. Things got really complicated. So now, that the kids have gotten their visit from Santa, we can pack up the decorations, maybe we can our life back on a somewhat normal track.

Dear did you forget something?

Well hubs was putting up the chair rail in DD's room, (or what we were using for chair rail), and had said he was all done. He then had a fire call he had to rush to. Remember we live in hicksville, he's on the first responders/fire dept. Anyway, I went up after work to look at the room. Here is one side.

And here is behind the door.

After he got home I asked if had enough chair rail. He said he did and he still had some left in the garage. I said, is there a reason that there is none behind the door?
Oops.

Damn

Ok tomorrow would be what..Saturday OH I don't have to work. Let's see hubs sleeps for 5 hours, he's soooo lazy! So I can either, go grocery shopping, nope the kids don't have to eat, or paint the stairway. I think I'm going to choose the stairway. It's gotta get done. Then we move on to the floor of the living room.
And oh I have made out my letter to Santa, if any of you know him.......I would like an elf to come strip the paint off of my windows, the inside. I'll do the trim, but man the windows? Those just suck. Big hairy donkey balls.
