Ode to Joy, Jordan's room is almost "done". Nothing in my house is ever "done", but this room is finally pretty close. And what a trial... I've been shopping for her new bed since February. I finally purchased one only to have the incompetent fools at Furniture Row tell me they over sold the bed and couldn't fulfill the order. I bought the bedding back in March, only to have the incompetent fool that works for UPS deliver the duvet straight to the jaws of my beastly dogs, who promptly shredded it across the backyard. And Jordan's new dresser is on custom order from Pa (let's hope for no industrial accidents there).
Jamie and I worked like dogs all weekend. The (nearly) final result: no more builder-white walls, no more sloppy trim work, and somewhat sadly, no more crib. And it cost me my whole Birthday Weekend to get there. But my reward: Jordan LOVES her big-girl bed and room. So that makes me smile. I love it too, I want to sleep in there. And much to Jordan's glee, I can. "Mama, you fit!!" (she used to ask that I get in her crib with her).
