Painting The Bedroom

Photo-A-Day #606 12/05/06

It is time to paint the bedroom. Yesterday and today I did some priming of the woodwork. This is a nice little feature of the room. There are 7 cubby holes about a foot deep and a foot wide and a foot high (except for the top one which is about 7 inches high, kept getting my brush stuck) These will be great little storage places for different things in the room. Not sure what exactly but should be pretty cool. And it is built into the side of the chimney. We have marble fireplaces (decorate fronts) in two of the rooms, one is in our living room (soon to be dining room) and the other is in the future bedroom.

I’m very excited to get to work on these rooms and finally have them done. It will be great to get the new bed in the new bedroom and finally stop having to crawl over the tons of stuff that lives in our existing bedroom.

I was able to get my car inspected today. A great local garage called Achin’s. I went to school with one of the women who works there and they are very nice. We’ve had to call on them on a few occasions for tows and whatnot. I got there in enough time that I could also go to the gym. I was happy to get there and work out a bit. I haven’t been in a while and I feel like a slug.

After the gym I primed a little more trim and will do some more tomorrow night. Slowly we will get that room finished.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
