This makes me want to do more to our house. I just can never get my boyfriend to help me do crap. Spring cleaning will do it though. We need to re-paint everything.. re-do our wood floors and get a few new doors for the house!~
That's poopie. Luckily Vicki and I work together pretty well. We tackle projects together doing different aspects and or helping each other on things we can't do ourselves. Makes the jobs much easier.Quote:

Our house is a project in itself. I guess it's a bit overwhelming. We work alot and when we get home.. we just want to relax! There is so much to do too! I mean, we scrapped our whole living room and mudded it. (It had icky popcorn stuff... ON THE WALLS!) But we haven't painted it yet. I got primer on the doors and on our windowsills but no actual paint. We painted our hall way.. which is short and got our kitchen floor re-done.. but.. nothing else.
We have two rooms to get new carpet on and paint those before we do. Fix a leak in our ceiling. Gah, I could go on and on!

Maybe start by setting aside a few hours a month.
I bet you would be surprised at how much you could get done and somethimes after I get started I don't want to stop.
That's a really good idea!
I know when it gets to spring time we are going to have at it again. But that is just a great idea. It can get very overwhelming. Maybe I should try to just little things rather then EVERYTHING!
Best way to go about it. Before you know it, you'll have made good progress---but pics are required. :001_tt2:Quote:
