Update


I'm looking for one of these... for cheap! If you see one call me immediately (787-7574).

I'm taking each project a little slower because money is a little tight right now. We both got laid off in January (we worked for the same company) & we're making about $1,500 less a month than we were before. We both have jobs & we're getting by ok but I'm only working part time & Shawn is working a crappy warehouse job for a few more weeks until he starts his other job. He found a job managing a restaurant that is opening in about a month. The pay is pretty good so it'll be nice to have a little more income.

How I'm attacking each project is one small segment at a time. I'm currently working on my master bathroom. Since money is so tight I get to make my own money on the side to provide the means to do it. This week my focus was paint. We went to Lowes on Friday night & priced out everything I'm going to need for the project (paint, rollers, tape, & brush) and picked a few colors that we like. To earn the $35 I'm going to need for the project, I'm going to babysit from my friend, Tina, on Saturday while Shawn is at work.

The next portion is to get that mirror!!! I'm using the law of the vacuum (get rid of the things that make you unhappy to make room for the things that make you happy) to get it. So I'm going to take down our contractor's mirror when I (aka Shawn because of pregnancy) paint. So I won't have a mirror on my bathroom wall until I get this one. So again, if you see one somewhere cheap (around $30) call me! Thanks!!

xoxo
