The Simple Life

Things are finally calming down a bit. I have finally raised enough hell to get the remodelers done with our other house for Granny to live in.
This remodeling job was supposed to take 5 days.....we went well into 13 days and a lot of hell raising from yours truly. (hiding my head in shame) They even made the comment that they don't know how my husband has remained married to me for 14 years.
I got the following done:
New sheetrock in halls and bathroom
New Tub
New Vanity
New Toilet
New tile in Kitchen and Bathroom
Painted all rooms in the house except kitchen
Put up new exterior doors
New locks
New Electric Hot water heater
Rewired the whole house and built a new service entrance
New Wallpaper in the kitchen

Finally, we moved Granny in. Things are hopefully going to get back to normal.

I haven't scrapped in awhile now......I broke a good streak that I was on.
I am going to a class Friday night at Scrap Etc in Birmingham. We're going to make a 7 Gyspies Photo Spinner all decorated. I think this will possibly be the longest class that I will have ever attended. LOL I think the estimated time for it is 6 hours. HMMMMMMM I am totally looking forward to getting away from everything.....those contractors had me really fired up. I can take the break. I am even considering staying in a hotel room for the night. I need the R&R.

Anywho, I hope that everyone had a fabulous Valentines Day. Have a great week!

I"m sorry the contractors gave you such a hard time - sounds like you made them pay for it though. Good girl!

Have fun at your class! We need to plan a time to meet up soon!!
