I can't believe that I decided the other day to start tearing the wallpaper off the walls in the girls' room. It has taken me several days to get as far as I have & I am hoping to be finished enough to patch & prime the walls by the end of the week. I may save the actual painting with colors for another time. I think I forget that every time I start a project like this the rest of the house falls apart so to speak. And I have been letting the kids play far too much PS2 so I've got to hurry up & finish before their behavior changes in the way I don't like. On the other hand, getting rid of the nasty, grimy, ugly wallpaper is really nice. And we found a little treasure of wallpaper underneath. Not sure what the people were thinking but it appears that they were trying to use a border as wallpaper. Gabby & I thought they were cool looking ships so we snapped a photo to remember. We also got the not so pretty flowers underneath & then finally the salmon colored walls. I'm sure that paint is filled with lead so that's another reason I'm trying to hurry & get it primed to seal it in. All 3 of the kids have been sleeping in Braly's room for the last few nights & I think that is getting old to them. So I'm off to get back to work & get as much as I can before lunch time is here.
All those pictures were on the wallpaper? I bet that was interesting to take a moment and check it out.
