A long weekend

Ah, the drizzlyness of the weekend was a good topper - I loved it.

Thursday night I worked until midnight and then came home and passed out pretty quickly. Friday morning I got up, showered and headed straight for H's house. I picked her up and we went shopping for spackle, paint, fabrics, screws, staples, etc. It was crazy. Then, at 3pm we got back and we fixed the walls and began painting her walls a dark dark tinted primer. D came over for a bit and helped us patch some larger sections of wall before that.

Then, when that dried, we then painted the dark red paint on it and we left to let that dry. We went to my moms house after measuring her 2 closet doors, window and doorway and sewed up 7 large panels - a flowy white. We were done with that by 10:30pm and got back to her place and we then did touch ups on paint and then prepped the floor. We swept and scrubbed until it was clean and then cracked open a box of her tiles. Beautiful - they were the easiestt to lay on the floor and all I did was the sides and corners as the other girls, H and A (H and her friend) placed the large one pieces. We kept working until 3am and then H and I came to my room and passed out until 10.

We then went back to her house, cleaned up a bit and finished painting any little spots. The girls put up the white panels we sewed the night before and we (I and Aspen) began stapling the black shiny fabric to the ceiling. That turned out awesome - but H needs to go buy some kind of fringe or ribbon to cover up the staples.

Then, we cleaned up and began to put all of her decorations up - she had boxes full of things that she had collected over the years.
