So I was wrong

the worst part is the dumb painting. Painting painting painting. 3 days of painting!! I am sick of painting LOL Oh and I have now decided that the white around the skirting, door frames and window frames is too bright and I don't like it. LOL Guess tomorrow will bring more painting LOL Well we still have the ceilings to finish and the doors to start. Ho hum. A little bit of advice, if you are planning on decorating PAY FOR A PAINTER!! Truely they are worth every penny. Unfortunately for us there are no pennies left to pay for one LOL

Easter egg hunt was fun this morning. The girls ran around finding their clues and little eggs until they got to the bunny. Always fun to watch their faces. Also Miss 7 has taken a liking to catching bugs and butterflies and along with some other neighbourhood kids has spent the last three afternoons running around catching them. So cool to watch how excited they get when they find something a little different. We had plenty of crickets, cabbage butterflies, grasshoppers, katydids and the odd weird spotted stink bugs. They are then let back to the wild at the end of the afternoon.

Sadly the easter bunny forgot to leave me some cadbury marshmallow eggs. Perhaps the easter bunny needs a bigger hint next year!! lol

the worst part is over lol

Well the bit that I was dreading the most is over. The gib stoppers were sanding yesterday and thanks to the advice of some friends, a huge sheet of plastic taped to the wall and ceiling, and the stoppers handy dandy sandy machine that sucks up most of the dust it wasn't actually too bad. We managed to keep most of the dust to the renovation. And then hubby and I spent a couple of hours cleaning up. Gave up on the very far end as there are no lights down there and it was after Greys started LOL So have that to finish this morning. Also they will be back to put up the coving some time today. But that wont make too much mess. So YAY!! now onto the painting!!!!!

As for the new blogger. I am not sure that I like it. It seems that I have to sign in every time I want to post a message and also I can't seem to go straight here from my blog like I used to. Can someone please tell me if there are shortcuts that I don't know about. thanks

Have a happy easter all and may the easter bunny smother you in chocolate!!!
