My parents have a very old home. About 150 years old. They have been working on it for years. Each year they tackle a problem or redo a room. Well, the wedding gave them a little more momentum. Since I was home last January they have redone..
The upstairs bathroom, the downstairs bathroom and the entire kitchen. They have also repapered all the walls downstairs and many of them upstairs and refinished most of the floors. They do most of the manual labor themselves, though my strapping younger brother did alot of the heavy stuff. Better Homes and Gardens meet This Old House. I am seriously impressed.
So now we are working on the outside. There has been a heat wave lately so outside work means lots of sweating, swearing and water breaks. So while my brother was on a ladder painting the house (he should get a medal!), I was pulling weeds from flower beds. I need to be careful not to get tan line because of my strapless wedding dress, thus this fetching ensemble…
