My husband burst my bubble about this whole clawfoot bathtub thing, but I think it was wishful thinking and a whole lot of ignorance on my part as well. Apparently it needs to be sandblasted first, then a layer of whatever, then I can paint it. Needless to say, I can't sandblast. So...landscaping comes first, 2nd floor bath to completion next year. Boohoo.

Bigger boohoo...it's bedtime and I can't find my kitty. I went outside to lock up, close the garage door, and he's nowhere to be found. So I've got the garage door open a bit in the hopes that he returns by am, and that I can remember to get up and close said garage door before my husband leaves in the morning. Sooo, keep your fingers crossed that my kitty comes home in one piece, I'll be awfully said if he disappeared.
