From Janelle:
Lewis was looking through some old photos for structural issues and lighting diagrams. I gasped when I saw them. How did we live like that for so long? I knew that it was horrid but honestly, I’m surprised some of our friends didn’t have me checked into a mental hospital for hoarding or just plain Bad Taste Detox.
The photos made me cringe. The carpet was disgusting, boxes were stacked everywhere, kitchen cabinets were dirty because the painter used matte paint instead of satin, the temperature on the stove was unreadable, holes for structural investigations peppered walls, the cat peed on furniture cushions so we tossed them and the body line from our Tagging Party was impossible to hide. I guess that I just knew that it wouldn’t be like that forever but eeeewwww! We’ve come a long way baby!
I guess drinking helped….
From Lewis:
Well the mental hospital is still an option but that mess was just the beginning. We are almost at the end and we are ok!
From Janelle:
Yes, I still love you! It has been hard but things are still good.

The bathroom sconce boxes have been installed and the tile guy will be back to finish up installing the glass tile tomorrow. I’ve decided not to use the sconces I purchased 5 (no make that 6!) years ago. I tried but I am just over them. Everything else that I purchased then will be used so I don’t think that’s too bad.
My assignment for today was to choose new sconces. Yes, I know, I should have done it sooner. I know, I know, I know. And I hate unnecessary pressure but here we are. The tile guy will be here tomorrow. I must choose. I just fell in love with amazing Jonathan Adlers but Lewis is adamant that they are too big. We will see tomorrow but if they won’t work then I have to make another choice.
So, what do you think? Click here on my Pinterest site and pick one. It’s hard to choose just one, right?
My favorite but is it too big??
- Extends 4-inches from the wall.
- 12 1/2-inches wide.
- 27-inches high.
It’s really for a bedroom but it could be oversized and rad, right?
