OMIGOD! EXTREME MAKEOVER

This is just like the TV show EXTREME MAKEOVER!!!! DH & I stayed up past midnight finishing up packing thing in boxes...taking them to garage...finally slept...painters arrived before 7 a.m. and got right to work...in 20 minutes they had all our furniture corralled and covered...up ladders...light fixtures covered...things taken outside...more to the garage...Christo told me they would be able to do all the work in one day...because he brought extra help...my head is spinning...i have come out to our back yard, as the smells were getting to me, as i sat on my bed with my little notebook computer from work. i was so glad they would not have to disturb the router connection & I could do this.
You can see how quickly they work...clean and thoroughly.
Now I sit in my backyard listening to the birds sing, in the shade...hoping it does not get too hot...so excited this is happening.
I am so grateful...wishing you all a great weekend!!!! Am sure I'll be back to show the after shots next...stay tuned!!!!

  5. These guys know what they are doing. I can tell just by the photos you took. It would have taken me all day to cover the carpet, move the furniture from one wall to the middle of the room, then paint the first wall. By the end of the day, I would have been ready for the second wall and that would have been it. Lovely post.
