ANOTHER project!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel exactly like I did the first month we bought our house: completely overwhelmed!! At least this time, I do not have a wedding deadline of a month from now. Backing up, when we bought our house it was NOT, and I repeat, NOT livable. at. all. It was actually completely disgusting and I promised Drew that I would not move in until certain tasks were completed. We had a one month deadline. And we accomplished it. 15 hour days of blood, sweat, and tears in a one month span really did wonders. But that was only the surface. We still had five thousand other things left to do, but they could wait until after the wedding, after we somewhat settled in. Over the last year we have flipped the house, but this past couple of weeks, we have opened 3 other HUGE cans of worms that I am feeling overwhelmed about, and it is all my fault.

The [master] bathroom. Oh, the bathroom. The one room in the house I have not yet painted. Why? Because there is evil and horrible wallpaper attached to the walls. Attached to the walls with the strongest and oldest glue ever, behind the huge mirror, behind the nasty toilet, BEHIND THE BASEBOARDS!! WHO DOES THAT?!?! Seriously. The only person EVER in the history of putting up wallpaper came into my house 22 years ago, put up dry wall, did not prime the walls, immediately glued wallpaper up, and then installed the baseboards and everything else OVER it. I repeat, who does that? Ridiculous. So, THIS is why I have been putting it off.

I opened the can. Friday afternoon, on my way home from work, I decided it would be a good idea and rent a steamer (because NOTHING else worked, I swear) and attempt to take down the wall paper in the bathroom. I did not even get that far. I got like, a half of a wall done. Pathetic. Completely pathetic. And now the bathroom is in shambles, the toilet is in the bath tub, there is no shower head, curtain, or anything else other than our sink that is usable in there right now. Thank goodness we have another bathroom...but still. Not to mention, on the walls that I was able to get rid of the wall paper are completely ruined. I don't even know how to patch them. I know I need to completely mud them, but I am honestly not patient enough to do it. Bead board? Maybe. But I have to convince Drew first. UGH what have I done?!?!?!?!

Anyway, here are a couple pics to wet your appetite, and I am sure the result when this is all said and done will be beautiful...I just don't know when that will be.....

See that pipe? Yeah, that is supposed to be where the toilet is...

The walls are in horrible shape

 What have I done??

If anything good comes out of this one, I'll let you know. UGH!
