I Asked For New Paint!

We painted our living room ten years ago, so I figured that it was fair to ask for new paint. I even planned to do a significant amount of the work myself, since it is summertime. I should have known better. Hubby cannot paint a room until he has addressed all of the related issues. In the case of the living room, it was an entryway issue. Our 4'x4' entryway failed to adequately house our family's shoes, so they leaked into the living room. Here was the problem - mind you, at least 5 pair of shoes are missing from the picture, and some shoes are stored in bedrooms. Yes, we had a BIG problem. So, what does hubby do? Why add on to the house, of course! (This was last week, prior to the heart issues.)

So here is my new shoe closet - AWESOME!Yep, but still no paint, and clearly we need new baseboards. Since he was forced to rest for a WHOLE day when he returned home from the hospital, he set CoCo to work pulling off the old ones. Living vicariously? Oh yeah, he also may decide to take out a foot of wall between the computer room and living room because "it would look way better!" Gotta love him! :-)
