Young couples are always looking to buy their first house, and put some sweat equity into it! We did that with our first one. It was well built, but the decorating STUNK! We were happy to re-do it like we wanted.
And no, I don't do hardwood floors. We're gonna buy pre-finished flooring with a 25 year warranty!
I thought it was paint for Rosie's house.
So, how soon can you be there with paint and brushes?
I always wanted a crimson room with an electric-blue ceiling!!
Mrs. Sulla hasn't given permission, yet!
I've got some rooms here I'd like to paint. Only I can't find my collection of paint chips. Guess I need to start a new collection.
Not for a bedroom I hope. That color scheme would keep you awake nights!
Wow, that sounds exciting!
I'm not into painting. There's a reason I like renting...
Painting I can do. It's not so bad once you get started. It's dealing with wallpaper that I don't like.
Wallpaper is bleah.
Neither of you own a vacuum cleaner? I'd be buried in a matter of days without one!
muh pleasure...
And I can use all the prayer I can get.
yuh got'em...
life's an adventure Rosie... if'n yuh need anythin' else, let us know...
you can lay over here and rest up on yer trip... yer always welcome...
Hmmmm.....maybe I should do the paint touch-ups I've been wanting to do this weekend.
I find your intimate knowledge of show tunes disturbin'... where did I stow that dancing spiderman gif?...
I have a teeny-tiny dust buster. It doesn't work very well and I have to crawl around on my hands and knees.
Wasn't that a Gone with the Wind reference?
Why does everyone walk dogs? We never walk ours ;~D Just need a fenced yard and push them out!
You can pick up a vacuum at Goodwill or a garage sale that would do you better than that!
Pawnshop?
Yes... I would have suggested a pawn shop, but I knew you were on thread and I didn't want to upset you!
The thrift shop I went to didn't have any vacuums. And I'm too lazy on Saturday mornings to get the good deals.
I'll get one at some point, it's just not high on my priority list.
