I need to redecorate my bedroom. It’s needs painting in the worst way. I also need a real bed. Right now I’m sleeping on an air mattress bed and I really miss my queen bed. I have a $50 gift card to spend on bedding and will either use that to get a nice mattress pad or matouk linens for the bed.
I’m thinking of painting the room a nice, calming color. Right now it’s my escape.. well it will be more of an escape once I get a TV for in there and get it painted and get new linens and comforter. It’s a plain, dirty white rectangle right now.
We have a spare bedroom that serves as a guest room and a playroom for when the grandkids are here. The room has a bed, dresser, recliner and a TV that the boys XBox is hooked up to. We didn’t used to have a spare TV but we do now and I thought it would be better to have the boys play their games in there when they are here.
It is better.. it’s quieter and hubby can watch what he wants in the living room. Before Tayler went to Texas with her mom she got to play on the XBox without bothering anyone or anyone bothering her. Andi even went in there to play the XBox too. I guess she needed an escape from her parents too.
That bedroom is a really nice size and there is still plenty of room even with the bed, dresser, recliner, TV and toys.
I miss the house we used to have. It had 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a great kitchen, living room and dining room. We added on a 2 car garage and later added a 1 bedroom, 1 bath in law apartment on the back. The livingroom/great room area and master bedroom and bath had cathedral ceilings with skylights in the living room and kitchen.
We ran into financial problems and lost the house. I really wish we had looked into getting some foreclosure help before that happened. We didn’t do that and just let them take it. That began the condo renting cycle. We really want to try to get another house. Hubby really misses having a garage to tinker around in and I really miss having my own home. I miss being able to paint and do what I want with my home. I miss the peace and quiet we had at our old home. Some day… some day….
