Thankful Thursday

20120202-220227.jpg

God’s Written Word is what I’m thankful for today (and every day) for in it are truths of wisdom to follow every day.

A soothing tongue is a tree of life,  But perversion in it crushes the spirit. (Proverbs 15:4 NASB)

Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. (James 4:14 NASB) The home going of one of our cherished members begs the question are you ready to meet the Lord? See my link: God’s Simple Plan of Salvation

Blessed Sunday!

The grass withers, the flower fades,
But the word of our God stands forever. Get yourself up on a high mountain,
O Zion, bearer of good news,
Lift up your voice mightily,
O Jerusalem, bearer of good news;
Lift it up, do not fear.
Say to the cities of Judah,
“Here is your God!” Behold, the Lord GOD will come with might,
With His arm ruling for Him.
Behold, His reward is with Him
And His recompense before Him. (Isaiah 40:8-10 NASB)

Bathroom redo in spurts Part 1

We are at long last redoing our upstairs bathroom (the only bath in house with bath) These are before pics and “in progress” pics I’ve snapped with my iPhone (so handy) :D

Picture 1:  How the ugly looked :-)

Picture 2:  Ugly Bathtub but inside has already been primed (wish I’d taken a pic of how worn it was)

20110917-074841.jpg

Picture 3: the commode is in the hallway–DO NOT USE :D 20110917-074902.jpg

Picture 4:  Painting started & pulling out sink

20110917-075028.jpg

Picture 8:  Time to start on the floor

20110917-075046.jpg

Picture 9:  Slate!!  Slate!!

20110917-075101.jpg

Picture 10:  We’re on a roll now :D

20110917-075116.jpg

Picture 11:  2 cuts around the important hole in the floor :D

20110917-075125.jpg

Picture 12:  an eyesore that might take a while to fix –Right now we’re just going to texture paint the wall surround.  The contractor who built this house had really weird tile taste and wrapped it around stupidly and “un”Uniformly :p But da’ floor looks purty!!

20110917-075136.jpg

Picture 13:  GROUT!! GROUT!! And I’m the one who washed it all up (mega hard work)

20110917-075206.jpg

Picture 14:  Today I texture painted the sore spot and did some swirleys (after all it is a bathroom :D !! )

20110917-075226.jpgPicture 15:  Forgot to turn the light off but texture paint area that will be painted green.  Will probably later come down under the window with tile, but my real dream would be to rip out all tile in outside of the tub area and do bead board or large up to date tile. #IhateTheGuyWhoDidThisBathroom50YearsAgo (sorta)

20110917-075625.jpg

Picture 16:  Hubs painted the bathtub today with first  coat of tub paint.  Fan employed to dry it so we can take a shower before church tomorrow morning. :D The congregation thanks you, fan.

20110917-075637.jpg

Picture 17:  Tub without fan  Remember how ugly it used to be?

20110917-075653.jpg

Picture 18:  Inside of tub–it used to be worn down to nothing w/rust spots around the drain

Stay tuned there’s more to come (yay)
