When I posted last time about pictures coming soon, I wonder whether I thought it would be TWO MONTHS before I blogged again....
actually, no. I had resolved to blog more frequently. After all, it is a great way to keep people updated as to what is going on at the Singh household.
Well, let me tell you, things are messy! And by that, I mean the house.
We are making progress on the projects which we wanted to complete at the new house, but there are still lots of boxes in the basement, and lots of stuff everywhere which has not yet found a proper home.
We are still in the phase of makeshift solutions while we plan and figure out just how to make things function well in our new home.
I am very happy that all of our major painting jobs that we wanted to complete have been completed. We painted three bedrooms, a washroom, a powder room, the family room, the dining area, the kitchen, the toy/craft room! Phew! What a big job! We spent many late nights doing this job while the kids were sleeping. I have to give Robin most of the credit. He did all the hard stuff, while I just helped roll the paint once in a while. He is very focussed and determined to get stuff done. I am more relaxed and tend to say: Tomorrow is another day.
I guess that is one reason that I am not good at blogging. Tomorrow turns into many tomorrows, and that is how two months have gone by. :) So, my new goal is to try to do one blog post every Friday. I hope this will help to motivate me to keep showing pictures (and to keep completing projects). I am very motivated by deadlines. That's why school was so good for me.
Anyways, without further ado, here are a couple of pictures:
The front door and entryway, with two mirrored closets. Robin cut holes in the closet on the
right to help install potlights in the room next door.
one side of the foyer
the other side. Robin made the coat rack, right at kid level.
I hope to paint the front door a deeper red colour at some point.
Hope you enjoyed this post! Would love to hear your comments!

I did enjoy your post! Love the paint job and the kid level coat rack... that's what Jerry and i need to install so coats don't get simply dropped. I'm looking forward to regular posts, because I'm a wee bit nosy ;)
Hiya! Love to see updates! And I love seeing other people's front foyers b/c it's an area I've never gotten quite right - in any of the many homes we've lived in. Especially with 5 kids, I feel like it's an area that needs to be practical, but ours certainly isn't practical here! Always things to improve on, eh? Looking forward to your Friday posts ;)
