Projects, projects and more projects...

This weekend, Mike's parents took the girls for a few hours both on Saturday and Sunday. We also had no big plans for the weekend, a rarity during the Summer months. Time to do more work on the house. Here's what we got accomplished:

• Finished painting the Guest Bedroom, it's closet and all the trim work. Installed all new switches, outlets and covers in the room. Organized it, too.
• Painted our Master Bathroom, top to bottom. Installed new towel bar, ring, hook, toilet paper holder, new light fixture, framed the mirror, added blinds and did all the electricals as well.
• Installed all new switches, outlets and covers in the girls playroom and bathroom.
• Added all the new hardware to the kitchen cabinetry. 43 handles. Yes....43.
• Planted 3 flats of petunias (Red, White & Blue-ish) in the little garden next to our garage. Mike and the girls did this all by themselves and did a fantastic job!

We did a lot of other little things as well, but those were the biggies. It's coming along but sometimes it's just so depressing to get up in the morning and see all the work that still needs to be done. Not to mention all the everyday things, like laundry, dishes and cleaning, that are clambering for my attention. Oh well, one thing at a time. Every step forward is just that. Another feat accomplished, an item checked off the list, a tiny weight lifted off my shoulders. Everything will come together in time. It might be a LONG time, but I know that sooner than I can imagine, we'll have lived here for 10 years and I'll be looking to start the projects all over again! :)
