Last night Bob got the bars up in our new closets. The way he installed them makes it feel like the closet has even more space.

The closets are nothing special, old paint that does not look good by any means but i am excited about them. They do seem to have way more space then our old closets, maybe because they are actual 'walk in closets' which gives the feeling of being larger? What i love is that they have doors on them which will help the room feel more orderly.

As me and Bob were talking about future reno plans we realized our master bedroom plans (which would be to gut the whole upstairs to make it our big master bedroom and bath with a small nursery connected) would be years down the road (Bob said more like 10yrs) just because we decided that before the master bedroom is started we will have had to of redone the basement to give more bedrooms for the kids. Sooo since that would be the case and we will have to live with the upstairs the way it is, that gave me permission to eventually paint the rooms up there.

Since all of this cost money and any reno cost tons of money we will have to wait on it. Even painting adds up quickly. So for now we will move up stairs with no new paint and living with the old. We have been in a room for almost 2 years now that had no paint so it's nice to be in a room with paint, even if it's ugly old paint. LOL

I'm so grateful for what i have. I feel so blessed.... sure most of the rooms paint is not nice and we live with painted sub-floors that don't look good but this house has awesome potential!

This is only the second year in this home and we have a new awesome porch with awesome porch furniture, we have a new privacy fence (no grass yet though) in our back yard with an arch entry way, shelves installed in my pantry, and our newest adventure is the redone main floor bathroom. I mean come on! Who wouldn't feel blessed? I know the rest will come eventually and that will be awesome.... but for now i am happy with what i have!

So today i will be spending time bringing stuff from our bedroom upstairs and getting stuff organized.

We don't have the disposable money to buy the paint for the soon to be play room but i'm hoping we will soon. If not they can play in there with out it. LOL

I just want to get all this clutter from rearranging put away so i can get Christmas decorations put up!
