In One Day...

In one day we....
Cleaned and reorganized the garage
Doubled the size of the garage sale pile
Created more storage room for Vern and a craft bench for me in above mentioned newly cleaned garage.
Took a break..
But it was still early...
So we...
Moved everything out of our bedroom
Pulled up the carpet,pad and tack strips
Scrubbed,swept and vacuumed the newly found hardwood floors to remove "some" of the glue residue we will have to tackle in a future project.
Took 350 pounds of junk to the dump.
Went to Home Depot and was lucky enough to find an 8x12 foot beige burbur "solution" for under $100, a new lamp for my night stand and a few cans of Oops Paint (for future projects)
Returned home to wipe down and clean the bedroom walls and furniture
Rolled out and fit new rug into bedroom only to discover that it is 3 inches too wide..and we were too tired to care..
Moved all the clean bedroom furniture back into the bedroom.
Sat in awe for the rest of the evening at how wonderful our new room looks and smells as my new lamp shined a dim, blueish light into the room.
Had the epiphany that if you don't like something about your house/life it may take less that you think to fix it.
Have a clean,organized and roomy garage that makes all 3 of us happy and a beautiful "new"bedroom for one day's work and $150.
