Haha well, the bedroom is unchanged from Thanksgiving weekend. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Slow burn over here and that's a-okay. It's been cold (prefer the couch and blankets!), Jon got sick for a bit, and I'm not allowed to touch a paint brush....so..... . We're hoping to get more done this weekend. About to leave for breakfast and get some grocery shopping in before the weather turns to crap later this weekend. Jon also needs coffee. He's like a baby bird downstairs right now, "Sara. Coffee. I need it. Let's goooo already!" . I also haven't decorated for Christmas yet. Holiday Sads have hit me hard this year. But if my mother can be up and cleaning her bathroom --like a friggin champ-- only 3 weeks after major surgery (and she's doing AMAZING after all that!), then I can pull on my big girl roos and put up the tree! . What are your plans this weekend? #slowroomredo #slowremodel #painting #weekendplans

It's gonna be one of these colors! Left is Antique Silver and right is Airplane. Both are Easycare brand paint by @truevalue and we're taking advantage of the Buy One Get One special this weekend that ends tomorrow. Which one do you think we picked? 🥈for Antique Silver and ✈ for Airplane. Check out my current stories for more info and in highlights under "Guest Bedroom" to follow the progress. #bedroomredo #spareroom #graypaint #truevalue #diy #sheetrock

We started on the new guest bedroom late yesterday. Currently, I use the room for my computer, crafts (look at that huge table!), and makeup every morning for work at my favorite little mirror by @ihome . Everything in here is going to change. I don't have a mood board, basically nothing completely planned. All I know is we're going with gray paint and white trim for sure. I know gray paint is popular, maybe even "on the way out", but we like how it looks and used it in our last home. We're doing what WE like. We're starting with the paint choice of EasyCare Preminum paint from @truevalue . The samples we've put up have amazing coverage, and I was a little surprised. All anyone ever hears about on social media is the big names like Behr, Sherwin Williams, and Benjamin Moore. For us to go with one of those brands would mean a trip to the closest store I don't want to make just for paint. Plus, we really like our closest True Value. We buy from them more than we ever do the big box home improvement places. The quality of lumber is better, the customer service is always fantastic, and we feel better knowing we're supporting a business closer to home. #guestbedroom #roomredo #truevalue #easycarepaint #before #diy

I'm always trying to bring home a fountain, make up plans for a wooden barrel water feature, or even so far as wishing for a koi pond. Every time, Jon, my husband, says no! The only reason I don't just bring home what I want is because he and I both know it will wind up on him to maintain said water feature. Cleaning out the gunk, dealing with a dead fish 😥, or winterizing will be his "deal" and he has no interest. Soooo until I can change his mind, I enjoy the water ditch that runs between us and our neighbors! Due to the ditch boss and local fire district burning out the ditch later than usual, the cat tails are much shorter this year. I'm hoping they return to their full glory next year. I miss them! Do you own any water features in/around your home? #waterfeature #husbandsaidno #waterditch #cattails #farmhousereno #Colorado

Fall is officially here and the trees are already giving it up! 🥰 Can't wait until the cattails start to turn. More importantly, we're thismuch closer to all the 🦟 dying off so I don't get eaten alive while trying to enjoy evenings outside! #fall #Colorado #cottonwood #cattails #mosquitos
