Bathroom progress

If any of you care, we are on Day 4 of our bathroom remodel. Thank god my sister lives across the street, so I can walk over half-awake every morning for a shower. It's unfortunate that we chose the coldest week of the year to do the remodel, but oh well...


Here are some pictures...

Annie got a furm

I dropped Annie off at Canine Design in Mission this morning. This dog has been shedding like a crazy lady. I don't really mind it, but I was pretty embarrassed when I cam home from work one day last week to find one of Chris' future business partners sitting in the hairiest place in the entire house...on the couch where Annie sits and waits for us all day long. The "furminator treatment" or "a furm"...like perm...removes dead hair. Annie looks no different except for the groomer cut the hair on her toes and I always really liked them because they reminded me of The Grinch.

Annie is very tired and since she wasn't home all day, I'll be sad when I go to bed and she hasn't left us our nightly present...

Seriously...Annie leaves two pieces of her dog food in our bed almost every night. I was pretty annoyed at first because, inevitably, I would get into bed and more often than not I would put my elbow directly on the small pieces of food. It's almost like grinding your funny bone into a rock. Now I think it's kind of charming.

Somebody get me some help if my blog turns into a daily update about my dog...

Still a Wannabe

Yep, I'm still a wannabe art fair artist. I received my email rejection from The Brookside Art Fair. I've now decided I will apply to one last show in my hometown. The Smoky Hill River Festival doesn't take online applications, so I've emailed my digital images to have slides reproduced. It takes two weeks and the deadline is in two weeks. Cross your fingers that I make it before the deadline.

In the meantime, Chris and I began our bathroom remodel today. Woo Hoo! I'll post progress pictures, but I'm too embarrased to show the "before" pictures because they made me realize exactly how badly this little project was so sorely needed.

We decided on 3x6 white subway tile with dark grey grout. The floor tile it a dark grey slate with brown tones. I'm so nervous about the grout color because I was watching a home show on HGTV and they talked about dark grout with white tile and how it was "SOOO 80s". Oy! We will see...
