Getting the Bathroom done

The bathroom, upstairs, is now stripped of wallpaper, the cracks patched, the window frame is now sealed (can you believe it was not sealed?  The frame was a direct contact to the outside brick so the wind could blow through) which explain why it was so cold in there and there would be dirt when it was windy outside!  Geez!  Well, anyway, it's now fixed (cause we're moving) and the room is premiered.  I'll go back and paint it shortly, it should be ready in about an hour.  Then it will be the clean up, shampoo the carpet and see if I can get the place looking good.

Then it will be onto the kitchen upstairs.  That will take a while too. 

Greg and I were just talking about having an auction when we sell the house rather than move everything or put it in storage and then buying new in Des Moines to fit the space.  We'll talk about it more but it makes sense.  We don't want to put things in storage and have it get dirty and nasty and then try to sell it.  We'll keep the dining room set and our bedroom set but most of the other stuff (other than the trunk that Greg made, the tea cart and a few things like that) can be replaced if we need it.  It's a thought.
