apartment update

In all honesty not much new on the home improvement front. 

The month of August just hasn't been very productive. We've been to the house a lot and geez, it's been nice to step back and do something else.

In any case, a shot of the kitchen with the map hung.

 Here's the before and after of Seb's room. 

 The before and after of our bedroom.

Here's my week of work on the hallway. I took off a wierd partition that was behind the light coming down from the ceiling and spent alwost three days taking off wallpaper. 

Seeing as I hadn't quite had enough fun, 

I took off the base tiles as well,

 including in the toliet and hallway into Seb's room. 

By hand. I'm glad those two jobs are done.

And last but certainly not least..

the joy and delight upon discovering what was hiding

 under the wallpaper in the toilet.

That is some serious blue and yellow going on in there.

 It does allow one to play,  "where's the wild animal?" though while doing your duty. 

We have thus far found a cat, a dog and an elephant head. 

I personally don't spend enough time in there to have discovered more than the cat, but hey, whatever. We're thinking tile. Yep, instead of scraping, priming, patching....tile it. 

And there you have it. The continuing saga of our new apartment.....

I know, I know. It just makes you keep coming back, 

like Falcon's Crest or Days of our Lives.
