The Painting Bug

Well, we managed to fix up Erika's hole in her wall. It was a long process. We thought we could patch up the hole, then just put up wall paper up half the wall with a border. Well we tried everywhere we could think of in Leduc on Saturday, Rona, Walmart, Canadian Tire, Co-op, then finally Home Depot in Edmonton. No one had wall paper. Found a few borders. Anyways, then went to Benjamin Moore, lots of wallpaper, but you have to order it! Urrrrrggggg! I hate waiting for something!

Then we decided, let's just paint! Went to Co-op but the guy there said if he were us he would be scared to paint over the kind of walls we have in our mobile home. He said the paint might not stick. So we went home, with no paint, no wall paper, I was a little disappointed. Darren patched up the wall that afternoon.

Sunday I said 'screw it! Let's just paint! What could happen?' So that morning we headed back to Leduc, Co-op was closed, so we went to the friendly neighbourhood Rona to find paint. Woooowwwww! There was a lot of paint!!!

Anyways, we ended up choosing a pretty pale yellow and got her room painted that afternoon. It looks awesome!! I am so happy with how it turned out! Now I got the painting bug and I am thinking of painting our bathrooms. I will definately be going back to Rona!

I keep asking Annika if we should paint her room but she gets all panicky and says 'No! It's perfect! Don't paint my walls!' Too funny.

And now we have to really face the fact........ Belle is gone forever. Fare thee well. Fare thee well.
