I am trying ahead to immediately’s practice–I’ll speak about correct operating type (so enjoyable! haha) after which we’ll do a lightweight run (I am certain they’re sore from yesterday) and play some energetic video games.
I am certain I’ve some earlier than and after pictures to publish of SOMETHING, however I actually need to undergo my telephone and delete a whole lot of pictures. If I ask Jerry to take an image of me (or if he simply does it on his personal) he takes actually about 50 footage! I do not even have a look at them all–it’s like a shifting image ebook. Anyway, I have been performing some enjoyable stuff with clothes so hopefully I can discover footage.
Listed here are a few readers’ transformations for this week!
My husband and I purchased a two household dwelling. That is the lavatory within the tenants unit. The home was inbuilt 1931 and transformed within the Nineteen Seventies. This toilet had the vainness changed sooner or later, however was in any other case unchanged for the reason that Nineteen Seventies. The wall tile is mounted instantly onto drywall and in some locations within the bathe the drywall was rotting and tiles had been falling off the wall.
Within the bathe, we repaired the falling tiles and rotted drywall, then glued click on collectively vinyl tiles over the previous tile. It will cease additional water injury to the partitions. We stored the yellow forged iron tub, the flooring and vainness.
We sanded all of the remaining wall tiles after which painted them white. We changed the bathroom and medication cupboard, added towel rings and bars and painted the room gray. Whole value was about $500 but it surely completely reworked the room. We’re hoping to get 3-5 years from this mini rework earlier than we have to totally intestine and fully redo it.

Then I confirmed my 3 yr previous who gasped and mentioned “Mommy!

Your youngsters’ bedrooms look fantastic–and I like that your three yr previous wished to match his brother 😉 (Jerry mentioned the Star Wars knobs are a improbable selection, haha). -Katie
