Is that sea foam green paint on the ceiling?

Since Steve bought the house in May 2007, he's been slowly updating it.  The previous owner, or owners, had trouble taking care of home improvement projects with proper technique.  A lack of caring was probably the biggest problem.  For example, when they decided to paint one of the bedroom's a gag-inducing sea foam green, they painted over an even more obnoxious pink.  But they didn't put enough coats, so it was sea foam green with salmon pink showing through.  Not to mention they dripped sea foam green on light switches, trim, and even better, the wood floor.  And didn't bother to wipe it up.  The BEST part of the whole operation was they loved the color so much, they painted the ceiling too!

WAY TO GO JERKS.

We finally had enough of sea foam green mixed with salmon pink.

At this point, we'd already painted the walls a warm cream color...but watch as the sea foam green is forever gone...

Another project has been replacing windows.  We're not replacing the entire window - frame and all - but are using a nifty product from Jeld Wen called the Zap Pack.  It utilizes the existing window frame (which thankfully we can do), but provides new sash & tracks...for WAY cheaper (approx $250 per window as opposed to almost $500 per window for the entire window replacement).  We had three windows left...two in the guest bedroom & one in the bathroom.  Unfortunately, the hurry to replace them became more apparent when one pane in our bathroom window fell out.  And the window is in the shower.  Awkward.  We've taped an old shower curtain over the gaping hole.  Sadly, the shower curtain keeps the bathroom warmer than the previous window.

Thanks, hon, for installing the two guest bedroom windows this weekend!  They look so much nicer.

Please excuse the bullet-proof running bra & piles of clothes on the bed.  The closets in the house are minuscule, so I took over the closet in the guest bedroom.  Although I have a tendency to use the entire room as my closet.
