This is what I have been doing all morning......

Painting the extra room!
It looks pink but it is taupe~

This room has needed a 'fresh' coat of paint for some time now. I have ignored it, because it is an extra room. We are putting our wood stove back in our home for next winter. After being without electricity and heat over the winter snow/ice storm, we have decided that it was a necessity. John is coming out to drop an outside line out of our meter box so we can hook our generator up to the house (for outages only). Then we are having a rock hearth installed in our living room for our wood burning stove. I guess we are going back some years, because my grandmother had an ol' wall heater that stayed on very low setting and she heated her home with the fireplace and her gas stove when cooking. In the long run, it will save us money in the winter, cause that wood heater will run you out of the house when it is going! The front room at this time, is being turned into a sitting room. We have to move a couple of chairs in the front room so that we can make room for our stove!!
