Than what was underneath the lovely mountain scene that was peeling off a bright YELLOW wall!! Lets just saw a $125 dollar project turned into a $600 project by the time we were all done!! That is just one example...
Fast forward to our most recent project.. Putting new trim up (took all the old trim off to finish the floors) and new door frames and doors... This should be a "simple" project right? LOL no! As my husband was taking trim off in the bathroom what did he discover BLACK mold!!! GREAT!!! So now instead of fixing up the bathroom next year which we had planned on cuz we can't afford to fix the bathroom right now. We have NO choice but to fix the bathroom now as black mold is TOXIC! So now not only does Guy have to finish the back room (which entails finishing the mudding and taping, laying down the laminate hard wood floors, texturing the walls, painting the walls, and adding new trim), now he gets to completely gut the bathroom all the way down to sub-floors (we aren't taking any chances with this black mold) and re-do the bathroom. Oh and we also have to texture and paint the baby room and the hallway as well. And this all needs to be done in 13 weeks... Here is the part where I start laughing than crying! I feel bad because I can't help DH with much, he has some friends helping him but for the most part this is all on his own! He is SO stressed and I feel so bad for him! I know God will get us through this as he always does. But man I swear this house HATES us and just does not want to be fixed up at ALL!!! On the positive side of all of this after the bathroom is done the only thing that Guy and I have left to update is the kitchen and than the inside of this house will be completely re-modeled!!! If you guys could say a prayer for us that all of this can get done before the baby gets here especially the bathroom as it is DANGEROUS for a newborn, Guy and I would really appreciate it!!! : )

Sending quick remodel dust your way!! My dad owns a remodeling company that I work for so I know how crazy it can be when you find things you weren't expecting.
