We're mostly better now - residual cough and blowing noses, but nothing we can't handle!
Saturday we went back to the house, we replaced the grass up in the front yard (we had a little "grass path" that they ripped up & tore the sprinklers out) with little rocks...contrasting in color to the other rocks. A quick fix, doesn't look as nice as the grass did, but much easier maintenance.
We also painted - the "great room" entry and most of the hall - it's a tan color - it's helping with the smell in there. Here's a cell phone picture - we had to do a few coats - for one, the kids helped
(you can see the one area the manner in which they painted) they enjoyed it - and then we sent them out to play in the pool...while we did the "second coat" a little more evenly! (see to the left!)
So we have the bedrooms to paint - we are going to spend an hour a night the next few nights getting those bedrooms painted and then starting today - hopefully, we'll put an add in the paper and get that house rented out before too long!
Meanwhile because of the sickies this last week - housework has fallen to the wayside! Laundry, dishes, mopping, oh my! It sure makes it easier to mop when I'm pregnant and readily enjoy the smell of cleaning supplies!
High ho - High ho! It's off to work I go!

Waaaahhhh my purple wall! ;o) I like the new color!
What?! They ripped out your grass and sprinklers? What kind of psychos are they, anyway? May the fleas of a thousand camels infest their armpits.
I like the tan!
Wasn't this your accent wall? The deep red or whatever? I loved that wall! Dangitall!
it was a two-toned purple faux - it's okay to be gone - it was due for a change! 7 years of purple - and well...quite frankly, I didn't have any purple touch-up to fix all the holes & crap they put in the wall anyway!
