Well we have finished our second week of working on the town home and we are right on schedule! It was a long busy week spending every night at the town home doing whatever task needed to be done that night. Jeff's mom and sister helped us out a lot. We couldn't be more grateful for their help and support.
Jeanette's parents came up on Friday and helped us that night to do the priming and final preparations for the actual painting. The worst was the oil based primer in the staircase to cover the wood paneling. I think we were all a little tipsy after smelling those fumes, especially Jeff who was the one doing the top of the staircase on the ladder! Saturday morning we started bright and early (for us anyway...8 am) and painted the day away. We took a short break from 11:30 till about 1:30 for Bella's, our now 2-year-old niece's, birthday party. We got the living room and hallway completely done. The two bedrooms just need a second coat, and we need to finish painting the kitchen and bathrooms.
We're feeling great about how everything is turning out and we get more and more excited every time we finish a new main task.
This week we plan to finish painting at least the kitchen and maybe, hopefully, the bathrooms. Also pack and be moved out of the apartment by Saturday afternoon! We have high hopes of getting it all done in good time!
Here are some pictures from this last week...I kept forgetting my camera so there's not as many as I would like, but you'll get the general idea! Enjoy!
