Exhausted! February 11, 2006

I was awakened this morning by my darling husband making a pot of coffee, letting the dogs out, and complaining again about the mess the construction crew left us for the weekend.  We realized that today was the day we had decided to redo my son's romm (yet again!).  My son has had a nascar room, a motocycle room, a "chinese dragon and symbol" room, and now, per his request, a dolphin and killer whale room.  He does understand that this is the last time that we are doing this, until we get restationed elsewhere.  Thankfully my son was gone to his mother's today while we were doing this.  Even though I had everything that was his covered up with sheets, EVERYTHING that belonged to him was covered in that white dust.  We have had to scrub eveything down, to get the dust off.  If he would have been here, I really think it would have been too much for him.  The "crew" is supposed to return Monday.  My husband is going to tell them that a filter system has got to be used because of the risk to my son.  I am sure they will be happy to hear that.

Well, we started working on it after about 2 cups of coffee.  It didnt take but about 15 minutes for us to realize we needed more paint.  We also realized we needed more tape as well.  Then we realized we needed more "seaweed" for the bottom of his wall.  All this led us to run back to Michaels and Walmart again.  Got back home and finally began making progress on his room.  We are 80% completed as of now, however I am "fixin" to fall over asleep.  Will post pictures tomorrow of the finished product.
