Miss me?

You want mind numbing-
Try suede effect paint - one mistake and you have to start a wall all over.
No kidding.
No going back to fix it.
If you see a mistake you have to do the whole wall again.

Nice room! I really like the dark brown leather couch... Thanks for sharing!

I live in Dallas - so I think you invited the dallas folks but I'm officially inviting myself. I want ot see that Disney Room!!! Have you already said what part of town it is in?

The pictures look great! Hmm ... I was thinking about a trip to WDW on Dec. 5 but maybe I should consider Texas!

Saxton, if you decide to go to WDW let me know! We're there 12/3 - 12/7. We'll be at MGM all day 12/5.

Well, I won't be going - I just called member services and everything is booked up! I could have gotten a 1 bedroom at BWV for 3 days in the middle but nothing else. I was even willing to stay at a moderate but those are full too. Actually I'm heading to WDW in a couple hours so maybe I'll try again when I get home, hopefully something will open up.

Availability is sucky. I have looked a couple of times to see if we could downgrade since this is a cash trip for us, and there is NOTHING. I thought once we got past the 45 day mark there might be cancellations, but nothing has opened up. So whatever. We'll keep our savanna view bunk bed room and deal with it. At least we got an AP rate.

You're more then welcome! We finished 80% of it last night. Then steven found a few more vintage disney items on Ebay and then found a mickey mouse pull chain for the ceiling fan. (big eye roll)

Come on down! The weather is crappy. Feels like Seattle.

I live in Texas too, further south in Houston, and I for one welcome this seattle weather. I know it won't last forever, but OMG IT'S NOT 100+!!!!!!!!

I love these few months when I can keep my windows open 24/7 (unless it rains) and not run an AC nor a heater!

ok enough soapboxing about cooler weather.

 

[geaux_half]

North Houston here in The Woodlands....sometimes feels like south Dallas. Run year round here mostly in weather that is hot and humid so love the few times a year that we get Seattle like weather.

Woohoo! More Texans.

I love the heat and I do have to say that the cooler temps are great, but I'm just sick of the rain. Since October 1st, I think it's rained every day except 3. Feel like we need to build an ark. But Houston? You guys have worse humidity then we do. Going outside in the summer is like taking a hot bath. Minus the bubbles.

We're in South Oak Cliff, so with you being in North Houston, we're practically neighbors.

I've got an ex who lives in Sout Oak Cliff!

If you see him crossing the street or working in his yard or something . . . you should totally run him over!

Give me his address girl! He won't know what hit him.

Anyhoo, back to pictures. Here's the downstairs guestroom that we've almost finished and is now where we put all of our Disney stuff. Still have some stuff coming in the mail, others still in boxes. We're having to pick and choose now.

The scale/size of the furniture works a lot better now too. Very nice.

Thanks guys! But no matter what we do, the room is probably going to look a "tad" bit cluttered if we're not careful. On the big blank wall, we still have our Pin shadowboxes and our Shag 50th Anniversary prints....

Right now, Steven and I have been obsessed with DL Opening day and 1955-1965 vintage items. Recently we bought a 1941 Fantasia Movie program, 1955 opening day book sold at the park that's full of photo's (looks like postcards), a 1960 Brer Bear statue and a 1971 Song of the South movie lobby poster, 1958 Disneyland Hotel ashtray and a 1979 mickey mouse lamp.

We need to stop!
