I think the last time I talked about monthly goals was the end of July/first part of August. I am trying to remember (while being lazy and not scrolling back too far) what I put? I am pretty sure that it was August to select colors for the dining room/office/foyer and that in September I would paint.
For this being a late summer goal, I didn't do too bad!
We got the colors picked and I have so far, spent two afternoons painting to total one hallway in the foyer and one wall painted and two in the dining room. We need to double check our second accent color against the new taupe color of the dining room, purchase it and then paint.
We decided on a taupe neutral to use throughout the three rooms and I am thrilled with it. The second accent color will be a slate-ish grey.
Today we went and picked out new floors - or at least picked out 6 options which once home were quickly narrowed down to three.
Tiger Bamboo
Tobacco Road Teak
Australian (or was it Austrian?) Cypress
So that is the goal for this and next month - get the new floors decided on and in.
I seem to have a bit more flexibility with time lately and so my goals can be more than "clean out Leif's closet" because in theory WE can do that one day after school.
My stretch goal is that by Thanksgiving, I have a newly painted foyer and new paint and floors in the office and dining room.
