Sneak peek.....

This is the "orange room"......The moulding and carpet are just sitting there, not installed.  Handydman will make short work of that tonight and tomorrow night, though.  Then all I need to do is paint the door and closet doors and this room is DONE!  We'll do more decorative stuff down the road, but all the structural stuff needed to make it livable will be done!  There will be lots more pics once we move the boys in.

Project update: Week #4

I actually didn't get a whole lot done this week that you can see in pics.  I touched up the paint in Magician's & Tornado's bedroom, did a bunch of sewing, and had a blood pressure scare. lol  Apparently my midwife's BP machine was acting up that day because I went from 90-110/55-65 being my normal range to 143/85!  So that held up the painting until I was able to get a few more readings in my normal range.  Whew!  I really don't have time to have high BP. ;-) 

Once we were sure my BP was really fine, I did finally get to work and primed and painted the laundry room.  Nothing exciting picture-wise because you can't really tell. lol

But the best news of the week was this:  Our tax check finally came!  I'm a little embarassed to admit that it was returns for 2010, but we got them, nonetheless.  So there's a bit of funding for some of the projects that we really need to have done before Baby Boy arrives in late March/early April.  I'm planning on late March because this boy's big and I usually go about 2 weeks early.  IF I make it to April, I'm sure it will be April 1st......ya know.....just because that's how it would go for me. lol  Magician was born on Halloween...the ONE day I BEGGED him not to come. 

Yikes!  Sorry about the tangent. lol  Soon Handyman and I will be done with our taxes for 2011 and be able to get some more of that torn apart basement livable.

What projects were you working on while I was freaking out about my blood pressure?
