Good morning everyone,<br />
<br />
I have to admit, that it is nice to see that I am not the only one who does lots of renovating around the house.  We moved into this house in August of 04...it was built in 1976, and the decor was that period...I refused to move in unless the scrambled egg and burnt orange carpets were torn up first, lol....the dining room had this wallpaper that was mustard yellow, avocado green and colonial blue all in a very very busy 1776-1976 colonial theme...needless to say...I pulled it off the second day we were here...lol...<br />
We have done alot of work...I put in parquet floors in the living room and painted it a forest green...this room is actually done.  The kitchen had carpet in it...that too was torn up and a thin layer of subfloor was put over the old linoleum...that was found under the carpet&#33;  I put in new vinyl flooring....for now...the cabinets were dark dark brown wood stain...I painted them white...did a chair rail...wall paper on the bottom paint on the top...which coordinates with the dining room that I just finished last week...lol...wainscotting, chair rail...white...wallpaper light yellow, blue and white a touch of green, and the trim in the room and windows is all white...very country.  The kids rooms had the carpet torn up and fresh paint on the walls....I still want to do more to their rooms...all the crown molding and trim and doors and closet doors were stained, which looks awful...so I am in the process of painting all this stuff white&#33;  The family room is next...paneling&#33;  I am priming it then deciding on a color...lol...white trim though....the fireplace is all granite and is HUGE...I am leaving that natural...I like that the way it is....<br />
PHEW....<br />
<br />
I have alot of work today...marketing paperwork, etc.  Either work on the kids bathroom or the family room...or both...lol...I have laundry calling me as always....<br />
<br />
The sad thing...there is no Patriots football on...darn&#33;<br />
<br />
Have an awesome day everyone&#33;
