Here are 8 things I've learned during the past couple of days as I've been renovating my laundry room:
 | ||
| 1. Old duct tape on a scary looking outlet is there for a reason. Leave well enough alone or you will be shocked. Really. |
 | |
| 2. Rats can chew through thick stucco. Apparently they love to line their holes with old dishcloths as well, (mystery solved.) |
 | |
| 3. Sometimes it's better to leave rotting drywall alone as well. Otherwise you will keep making the hole bigger in an attempt to patch it. |
 | |
| 4. Spackle covers a multitude of sins. It's pretty much my best friend. |
 | |
| 5. Measure 2-3 times, cut 5-6 times. (See #4) |
 | |||
| 6. New paint makes a HUGE difference. |
 | |
| 7. Unattended orphans gravitate towards water, especially the muddy kind underneath the trampoline. |
 |
| 8. I didn't need that pig off of Freecycle after all. |

Thanks Rosie!
Are you rebuilding the laundry room or just remodeling? and where did all that mud come from (oh yea, it rains there)
I'm just slightly remodeling. It desperately needed patches, a new paint job, shelves to get everything up off the floor... The washer and dryer we ordered were supposed to be delivered today, but they won't be here till Monday instead :(
Love it Andi! You made me smile BIG!
Love you,
Denise
All the mud under the trampoline came from the girl using the sprinkler. :D
