... She is going to start looking around the house, that yesterday was just fine, and realize that the walls are looking mighty dinged and dirty and they need a fresh coat of paint...
When the painters come and paint the basement, up the stairs aand hall then she will go in to the kids bathroom and convince herself that they almost connect so not to look weird the kids bathroom needs to be painted too!
When the bathroom is painted she will them remember that she has always wanted a dark maroon wall in her bedroom, so 6 coats of paint later and after the painter has officially crossed her off the client list for picking such a crazy shade of paint that never looks quite right,
the painting is complete.
But with the new paint she notices how really digusting and nasty the 13 year old carpet is,
so she decided on a quick trip to pick up a light fixture she starts looking at the carpet samples and decides that she likes one, decides to get a quote, and within a week the whole house has new carpet!!
and just in case you were wondering how this whole process turned out to be so easy. It was fine if you didnt need to feed anyone breakfast, lunch or dinner,
or have to use the bathroom,
or need a place for the kids to sleep (yes, there are bunk beds in there somewere)
and heaven forbid anyone comes to visit.
But after night upon night of going to bed at awful hours and making a whole house full of furniture fit into two bedrooms we survived....barely!
Two weeks later we are finally, almost back in order. And of course as we start to put decorations back on the wall, Megan decides she needs a few new pictures to go with the new paint and carpet. So Ryan, being the good guy he is, surprises her with this for there 13th anniversary that they didnt celebrate because they were caught up in moving furniture.
The house looks great and it is now worth it!
