Master Bedroom Accomplished!
















After two weeks of sweating, swearing, and singing along to the oldies I now have a newly remodeled master bedroom and a new image of hell which involves an eternity of alternatively stripping wallpaper that has been put up with Tacky glue and pulling thousands of staples from subflooring. Truly a terrifying image! Equally terrifying was the bright baby-blue, shiny paint; shiny ceiling; and wallpaper strip featuring happy rubber duckies and flowers. Remember, this is the MASTER bedroom. I should've saved a piece to show you, but I actually ripped the picture portion from the backing before my furniture arrived last summer to avoid night terrors involving duckies (it's complicated).

Most of you are familiar with my penchant for Muchas. Well, this room is built around and color coordinated to go with my gal Morningstar pictured above. (No, not the aging hottie in the pink tank top, the -gasp and cover mouth with hand- nude! This last bit was specifically for Mark Caviness. He'll know why.)
Scooter enjoyed hanging out during the process, though he was virtually no help. He seems to be enjoying his new digs, even with out a bed. Mark and I will like it better when the furniture and clothes are back in the room. By the way, the flooring is a peel and stick vinyl that looks amazingly great, has a lifetime warranty, won't freeze our feet, and is pet-friendly. Who could ask for anything more?

Great job on the bedroom. It looks like Scooter is going to enjoy it as much as you!
