More electrical rough, more dust inhaling, paint purchase



Today was electrical rough in day. Billn traversed the stairs between the basement and the second floor about 500 times today. Snaking new wires into the existing house is tedious when you are alone. However, even without help, Billn is 90% complete with second floor electrical rough in and 40% with the ground floor. Hopefully tomorrow will bring 90% total electrical rough in.







Jenm purchased the paint today (Home Depot is running an excellent mail-in rebate program and their Behr paint is Consumer Reports top-rated).

Who can connect the colors with the bedrooms? We encourage readers to hazard guesses.




Your color choices are:

  1. Licorice Stick (red)
  2. Edwardian Lace (beige-ish)
  3. Valley Mist (greenish)
  4. French Taupe
  5. Airy Blue
  6. Milk Chocolate
  7. Harvest Pumpkin

Your room choices are:
  1. Senior daughter's bedroom
  2. Junior daughter's bedroom
  3. Adult's bedroom
  4. Bathrooms
  5. Hallways/stairways
  6. Guest bedroom (craft)
  7. Toy room





Blog readers, do your best! The winner might receive a prize (one night in the guest/craft room?).

Second shift concluded just prior to midnight.

Sent seperately. Knock yourself out. Perhaps next season's R|Wear will have this image silkscreened on it.

I'm gonna guess Licorice Stick for the Adult's bedrooms b/c we all know how much Jen loves red jellybeans!!!

JenM said...

Oh how I do love red jellybeans! And helmets too. But sorry, I opted out of red to avoid the connection of red with brothel/love nest/Roxanne! Make another guess.....

Sassy, you are awesome...only two are incorrect!!! I will not reveal the incorrect selections as I don't want to influence anyone else's choices. But let it be known that Sassy may be the winner of a free night in the guest room......
