First month is almost over, and I'm almost finished!

No pics this time, as I have been doing mostly painting this week.  I have 80% of the shelves done, and will tackle the ones that require a ladder tomorrow.  Since Wednesday I have spent about four hours total doing:

• painting shelves
• washing and ironing curtains
• taping newly painted shelves in preparation for wall painting
• a little bit of work on the mystery DIY project

Here is what remains to be done:

• painting high shelves and ceiling (we had a leaky, rusty toilet situation a few months back)
• painting walls (after my husband finishes repairing holes in the plaster)
• replacing toys on the shelves
• finishing the DIY project

Since I can only make paint dry so fast, I won't quite be done in the month alloted, but that is ok.  The secret perfectionist in me is screaming, but I think I will feed her some chocolate and she'll be fine.  I am choosing a pretty easy room for February anyway, so getting a late start should be fine.
