I am slowly working on the house, which is the best way for someone as pregnant as I. Today I took most of the pictures and some shelves down and spackled all the little holes in the walls. I wore my pink shirt to photography class today since I love it so much. The pics were taken after work was done and Noah was in bed... reenactments of the day's events. Just wanted everyone to know I didn't wear the same shirt like 3 days in a row haha. Anyway, I also went and got all the touch up paint we'll need, including some basic white paint to try and cover up Noah's walls. I'm not looking forward to that job. I'm afraid it won't paint over well since I was lazy and used a sharpie marker on the outlining instead of paint. I'll cross that bridge when I get to it, I guess.
Hit a snag today. I was thinking about getting replacement closet doors, but then I realized why we never did in the first place... they don't make doors in these sizes. The tallest door is 80" and our openings are 96". That means I'd have to drywall down a foot and a half and paint and blah blah blah. I think what I'm gonna do is just leave the gaping holes. We lived without closet doors for 4 years, someone else can too. YAY! Coincidentally, before I left for Lowe's (the greatest home improvement store EVER) I checked the card balance real quick. Those jerks doubled our credit limit :P I guess I should be happy since we'll need more to do the house, but giving Josh and I twice as much Lowe's credit is like giving a kid a $500 gift certificate to a candy store. It's only going to cause problems in the end. We must be strong, Josh!
