You can't believe what gets done in a day?

ok Al I know, you build houses in three days but I have been waiting to see things happen for like 3 plus years. So this was amazing to me. Thank you so much guys for coming in and telling me I could watch but just taking over and getting it done. we are so overwelmed by the generosity. Thank you.

bye bye, yellow sponge paint and pretty pink flower border. I just have to say I will give the previous decorator credit...they didn't have a pink flower border with the yellow paint, but she did take a short cut and not take the first border down before she painted over it and then wallpapered again over the top of that. crazy lady. this house if anything has made me an anti-wallpaperer. if I wasn't before (sense the sarcasm).

So first they took everything out. Poor guys carried a cast iron tub out and dumped it in my front yard. I think I could have made the next revised version of:

You Know You are a Redneck IF:
they wanted me to use the bathtub as a flower planter...how redneck is that? (sorry to anyone that is offended by it, hope noone has one already)
we lost a wall...it is drastic how much bigger a bathroom looks without a privacy wall. come on, don't most close the door for privacy. I do.
this should be called blue board too...it is definitely ocean blue, not green. i was starting to think it is kinda pretty maybe i won't paint we will just leave it this way. minus the shop vacs and super bright lights. i am telling you only people that know what they are doing should do home remodels, not just anyone. cuz you just make it frustrating for virgil when he comes to fix your mess. hehe. sorry for the work of the previous homeowners. and a BIG thanks for fixing it.Stay tune...
