This room was one of the first rooms to have the floors installed and
walls painted, but one of the last rooms to be completely finished.
As I mentioned in the first post, my mother emptied all of their belongings
from the master bedroom when they came home for the holidays. This has been their room for the past 27
years. All that was left was the furniture.
I started using it as a location to do my quiet times because I needed
to get away from the chaos and concentrate on the Lord. It was the perfect spot until the remodel began…
as it was one of the first rooms German tore up.
The master bedroom was one of the ones that was completed before I came
up with the idea to write verses on the floors… so I wrote the verses on the
floor entering into the room. I wrote
two different verses… one coming in from the hallway and the other coming in
from the bathroom. Each one was specially chosen to bless Matthew and I.
The master bedroom was used throughout the entire remodel. At times, it was used to paint doors since
the weather didn’t always cooperate to allow for him to paint outside. Other times, it was used to store furniture
from other rooms. We would empty it out and German would say it was ready to be
set up… but I knew it was in our best interest to wait… and soon after, more
items would be in the room so they could work on another section of the
house.
The wall of doors...
German surprised me again when he worked on the walk-in closet. Not only was I getting an upgrade in the closet,
but he made the shelves adjustable and added more shelving so that we could store everything conveniently.
After German completed the work in the dining room and the living room
area, I finally decided that we were at a place where I could clean and organize
our bedroom. German and his crew had to
take a couple weeks off, so I took that time to get the work done that I needed
to do. It was during this time that I
organized the master bathroom, bedroom, and closet. It was finally ready for us to look for a new
bed and to have our tv mounted on the wall.
Finally, the room is clean and organized!
But… It didn’t take long for German to mess it back up and move items from the office and “Coopers” room into our bedroom. So, we left for our trip to Montana with the room a mess again… and plans to get our new bed as an anniversary present when we returned from Montana.
We returned from Montana and the next day we went shopping for our couch
and bed. We knew what we wanted in a bed
and had an idea how we wanted the couch, so it didn’t take long for us to
choose what we wanted and start the purchasing process where Matthew talked
them down.
I then went on a rampage to get the room ready for the new bed before it
was delivered. We were lucky enough to get a delivery date of August 6th,
our anniversary. I had told Matthew it was going to be our anniversary
present. What better way to celebrate
than to be able to spend our anniversary night in our new bedroom, in our very
comfortable bed. Of course, I was exhausted after cleaning all day as was
Matthew from running errands all day but at least we had a comfy bed to recover
in.
