Kitchen Redo

So, I haven't blogged much this past week because I was up to my ears in fluid. Honest. I finally went to the doctor and was told I have so much fluid on my ear she couldn't even see my ear drum. My goodness. I figured the dentist had just left a whole in my mouth from the root canal and crown I got earlier in the week, but no, I have a solid ear infection and I have so much fluid it has flooded down my throat and I have pus pockets of fluid on my throat. FOR THE LOVE OF PETE. Geez Louise. Because Mommys cannot call in sick, I have been blowing off the gym, but for everything else in life, I have been goin' and doin'. I must say it has been nice because Prince Charming has been home every day this past week, so that was helpful. ESPECIALLY since I decided to redo the scrapbook room this week and redo the kitchen this week.
















I promised him I would not start on the kitchen until the scrapbooking room was done. We have a tendency (in my family) to start something and not quite finish it....just saying!

So here is my diarrhea kitchen. It wasn't bad. I just felt it was dark and boding. The whole house was freshly painted when we moved in. Most people would have been thankful and sat on their ass. BUT NOT ME. Color is important. It sets the mood of the house. And boy is my mood important to the people who reside in this house. I also ADORE painting. Now that my dear ol' dad taught me the proper way to tape, paint and not make a mess of ceilings and door knobs I am much better.

Prince Charming still likes to tell people about how I painted door knobs. In my defense, HE was supposed to replace said doorknobs so it didn't matter that I painted them because they were supposed to go in the trash. ARG.

Anyways, I got the kitchen done in time to lay with my head full of liquid on a pillow and watch endless amounts of Gilmore Girls. I'm in love with that show.
