This my friends is what Websters dictionary defines as "chaos" ...... while I on the other hand define it as the family room and powder room  my life in its current state.  It has been months since we started this small powder room redo and while we can see light at the end of the proverbial tunnel ..... its now that I get antsy.  I am soooooo ready for the toilet to be off the back patio .....  the beautiful copper sink to be installed with the gorgeous faucet that is sitting in the box because it needs to be mounted on the awesome black vanity that has been sitting in the middle of the family room for 5 months now .... please God,  help me here.... this is when I get pushy and a little bossy; adj. 1.  Given to ordering others around; domineering.  I like to use the word bossy because it is a much kinder way of describing the evilness that can ooze from my very soul,  FOB begs to differ I'm sure!  However, I do feel that I deserve some credit for putting up with the CHAOS for the last 5 months.  The beautiful travertine floor is down and let me describe it for you...it has the cool soft feeling of walking in the wet part of the sand on the beach....you know just as the wave rolls in and the sand rushes over your feet and it feels so nice ..... well that is how I describe my new floor, I LOVE IT!   The beadboard paneling is up and painted a creamy color called "simple white" and the walls are a soft shade of khaki.  The colors are so soothing and btw...my ceiling is awesome .... copper ceiling tiles ....I just can't wait to "chachee" it up (as my SIL says). 

While I continue to practice the virtues that I discussed a few blogs back ... you remember "wedding shoes".... and although I have had to bite my tongue and walk away several times, I also have to remember that FOB does not walk the forest and see it for its magesty, he walks the forest and sees each individual tree for its beauty .... unlike his wife who drives by the forest and says "that's great",  where are we off to next?

Just a little preview!!!
