The Trials of a Busy Mom

Be our Guest. Be our Guest. Put our service to the test.

Sunday we will have house guests until about the end of the month. Hooray and fun! I thought it was going to be today (Saturday), but I just found out they aren’t coming until tomorrow. Which is fine, because the house isn’t quite clean yet, even though we’ve been working for what seems like forever to get things cleaned up and ready for guests. We’ve transformed Megan’s room to a nice Megan/guest room. On Wednesday we painted. On Thursday we put things back together

,

and today we (meaning Ryan) did all the handyman stuff,

like hanging the curtain rods, the art on the walls, and a little hook thing for hats. We even put a mirror in there, and I made a little seed catching skirt for the parakeets.


It looks much better in person, of course, but I’m very happy with how it turned out. Not to be leaving the other kids out, we hung the stuffed animal “towers” up in everyone’s rooms, hung a mirror and shelf in the girls’ room, and put up some new curtains. Yes, we’ve been busy, but not busy enough, according to the kids. They just want to know “when are you going to paint MY room?!” but that will have to wait until after the guests all leave.

I’m sure it will be a fun week with my sister in law and kids here. And after that, Robin and kids are coming!

So, now all we need are the guests!

    I am so impressed with your painting. I have yet to venture forth and paint any walls in my house. I really should. You have inspired me to do it in the next 10 years or so.
