Now you see it, Now you don't

"Honey, we really should replace the nasty 20yr old carpet in the great room."
"Yep, but when we do that, we should chuck the old sofa and loveseat and get a sectional."
"And repaint the walls."
"Well, if we're going to do that, then we really should put in better lighting first."
" Yes! Let's put in track lighting and wall sconces....."
So, I know you know this, but NO home maintenance job is as easy as it seems.
Track lighting installation went fine.
Wiring the track lighting brought us to this gaping hole in our wall.
(Please ignore the hideous state of disarray that we call the rest of the house)
THANKFULLY, we have a professional (yes, professional- don't argue with me!) drywall mudder (well, what else is it called?) in the family.
Enter my older sister with awesome skills!

In a matter of a few days, she and Matt covered the gaping hole, and she artistically went to work making bumpy and uneven smooth and spotless again.



Here's how it looks today.

And yep, she's available for hire!
Donna, we love you!!!
