I haven’t done a Tackle it Tuesday since February when we were getting ready to sell our house. Since then we have sold our house, lived with my parents for 2 months and FINALLY had the closing on our new house. It’s a long story- but we were supposed to stay with my parents for a couple of weeks before the closing on our new home. It didn’t exactly happen that way. But- anyhoo- we have finally closed on our new house so we have some things to tackle.
First up- painting- we (and by we- I mean Rich, my mom, my dad and Brooke) painted the living room, dining room, hall, foyer, and Brooke’s room. That is done and I should have pictures to show but I don’t. I have before and during pictures, but no after. The big project has been doing the hardwood floors- my dad and Rich have worked really hard to take the carpet out and sand the floors in the dining room and the our bedroom. That isn’t done yet. It takes a while for each coat of polyurethane to dry so this is a long process. We plan to shampoo the carpets next and then finally move in.
So0- that’s what we’ve been up to! Stop by 5 Minutes for Mom to see what everyone else has been tackling.

I know it has been a long (and frustrating) process for you- but I am glad you have finally closed on the house and are almost ready to move in. I’m also glad you have such a wonderful family that you could stay with until everything worked out!
