Spruce Day Seven
This was our last work day before we need to rent a UHAUL and move out of the apartment. Each morning we have been loading our van, and now that Giz and Grampy are here with their truck, and filling up as much as we can. The packing up our apartment each morning takes a hour or two to do.

Dd worked the Power Sprayer and Cleaned:
Dd learned how to use the sprayer from Grampy. She was SO excited to do this. She did the one stairs going down, and the back wall. G&G are going to leave their sprayer, so she can work on cleaning throughout the summer.

| The previous owner left the blue 'blanket' for the pool. It is suppose to hold the heat in...and make the pool warm enough for us to swim, since it is not a heated pool. |
Evolution of the Living Room:
 |
| Here Grampy is sanding down the Spackle patches. Dh bought that cool new tool, and we have all taken turns getting to use it. We had painted the floor in the LR a few days back, but today we patched holes, did the trim, and painted about 80% of the walls. We have a color paint to paint on the floor soon. |
 |
| This wall (light wall) had wall paper on it yesterday. If you remove wall paper you have to cover it with a primer before you can paint it, so here Dh is painting the whole wall with primer. By the end of the day, I come and paint it with our new color--"Coconut Milk" which is an off-white, or eggshell color. |
 |
| The color in our bedroom and what I've started to paint on this LR wall is the color "Coconut Milk" |
Evolution of Master Bedroom:
 |
| Doing the trim work in the MB, you can see how the Coconut Milk is a light color--it looks kinda beige |
 |
| Here is the MB with a whole coat of Coconut Milk on the walls. |
Evolution of Dd's loft bedroom:
Dd's bedroom theme is the Hobbit, from LOTR
Welcome to the Shire!
 |
| After Dd had painted her floor twice with Kilz, we realized the finish on that paint wasn't going to be a good floor. We needed an ENAMEL paint, with a gloss finish, to keep it looking clean. So Dd took out her color swatches that she likes, and settled on this color. She is SUPER excited about having such a fun floor! |
