Next week I am having a Southern Living at Home party. So I mention to Lenny that maybe I should go get a new shower curtain or some rugs for the gross and very ugly front bathroom. It is the only room that we have never touched since moving into this house almost 5 years ago.
The next thing I know, we are at Lowe's and Home Depot looking at cabinets. Didn't find any that would match the odd dimensions of the existing cabinet. I kind of shrug it all off as a whim, but Lenny. Woah something took him over. Something scary. This was last Saturday.. 4 days ago.
He has since, ripped out the toilet,
gotten rid of the bathroom mirror, ordered new cabinet doors for the existing cabinet, repaired the wall, plastered, mudded, 
and is now at this very moment, painting the inside of the drawers. I have bought new linoleum and it is coming tomorrow morning. I know, linoleum????? Yes, linoleum. People, we are on a major budget and this was supposed to be just a quick project. Besides, ANYTHING A N Y T H I N G would be better than this. 
Tile is coming when we decide to really remodel the pit of a bathroom!

So that leaves, Saturday... no wait, Lenny works, ok, Sunday. But Sunday we go to church and just hang. Ok, Monday. Nope, Monday Lenny works and Tuesday is the day everyone is coming over. Hmmmmmm.
I wonder if we can pull this off. I will let you know. I hope soon because my poor kids have no place to bathe!
So that is what the bathroom looks like right now. Here is what our front yard looks like right now. Think Trailer Park!
