And my husband is Tim the Toolman. He always comes in bloody from his projects. I wonder if I'm the only woman who PRAYS when her hubby is mowing the lawn. LOL He's a people person, a negotiator and a mediator. That's his gift. I'm a fighter!<br /><br />Show us pictures of your rooms--and that husband! :)<br /><br />Loved your letter and can't wait to answer it!Jessica Fergusonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320362797117599955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047934029762798489.post-63706432173563820722012-03-27T11:17:42.975-07:002012-03-27T11:17:42.975-07:00Haha, helter skelter.

How about adopting a 53-year old woman? The two of you could get cranky together!<br /><br />(You never get on your husband's nerves? Either you are a saint or he is.)

I like to clean as I go, make as little mess as possible, and have a plan. Hubby tends to knock out walls, make a heck of mess, worry about it all later. As a result, the whole house is in chaos while he "creates". We are facing a bedroom overhaul due to wall repair coming up. I might need to rent one of your upstairs rooms then! You will enjoy these rooms once done, but it does sound like you have a huge undertaking at hand...maybe a small target of one floor or one room at a time would help calm you. Good luck!Bookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12043111213031211794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047934029762798489.post-61684766821548899092012-03-27T05:21:21.920-07:002012-03-27T05:21:21.920-07:00Hi Lynn,

Love the idea of a writing room, an art room, and a library.<br />And ditto to what Tammy wrote about wallpapering with your husband. Mine and I will never do that again.<br />DonnaDonna Volkenannthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540727800410234483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8047934029762798489.post-30456092219516510772012-03-27T05:09:11.225-07:002012-03-27T05:09:11.225-07:00Just don't wallpaper with him--that one's ...Just don't wallpaper with him--that one's a real marriage-killer.
