Hi, Readers!
This is how my condo looked when I decided to do this historical re-model. The walls are sort of two-tone multipurpose greens, the carpet pale pink in the living room, gray in the dining room and loft area.

I'm having everything painted except the bathrooms and bedrooms and ceilings. The white tiled areas will remain as is; but the carpeting will be taken out and laminate "wood" floors installed. I'm also buying a new sofa and love seat. Tables and area rugs to follow shortly thereafter.

The paint, floors, sofa, and love seat are picked out, deposits put down...furniture and flooring being ordered! The painters come on Monday, September 8!!! I'm so excited - or I was - now I'm tired! I've spent today removing art work from walls downstairs, packing up bric-a-brak from mantles, and most other flat surfaces downstairs. Not to mention, taking down lace curtains, clearing kitchen counters, and generally moving things out of the way for Monday! Tomorrow I'll tackle the loft, and the entertainment center. Things are starting to happen! I'm excited about having all this done, an having a cozy "new" home for the winter!!

Look next for photos of the "bare" house in wait of new and exciting colors on the walls!!!
