I've been a little busy

So, what do you do when your life dream is taken from you and you are forced to face reality?

You redecorate your dining room which includes tearing down wallpaper, filling drywall holes, priming, painting, putting up wainscoting panels, learning how to use a jigsaw to cut out window holes in wainscoting, and go through a crash self teaching course in how to use a mitre box and saw and installing a chair rail and molding. Then you paint some more.

Then you may decide to help your neighbor landscape their front yard.

Then you may tear up grass for a flower bed.

You may also endeavor to turn the spare room which held your hopes and dreams into a play, video game, and craft room.

You may also take it upon yourself to organize every inch of your house.

Oh, and move all the furniture in your child's room, just for kicks.

Don't forget regular household chores like, cleaning, vacuuming, mopping, lawn mowing, and laundry.

Basically anything to keep you from thinking is what you will do. I'll post dining room pictures soon.
