Thank you so much for the pep talk, everyone! Basically we are still dealing with the mice and so we have been avoiding the kitchen and eating crappy food. We are getting close, but we think there is one smart mouse left. Also have been painting bedroom and my legs and arms and hands are all sore and swollen. Man am i sick of painting!

I was super stressed bc it always takes longer than you think it will, but then the carpet ppl said they can't install for 2 weeks so that gives a little more room to breathe. I have been eating takeout and Halloween candy, which i bought way too much of, and my tummy is upset and my mood is crappy. Actually wishing for my program.

I hope you all don't mind decorating pix. I hadn't intended to do my br yet, i always was waiting to deal with the carpet. Hope you all are well, happy sunday!

We tried trapping them but we had one smart one that had to be lured and relieved of duty. had to go to Lowe's and buy 3 electric sound emmitting traps and put peanut but in the vack of them. He was so cute. I wore gloves and a facemask to haul him out and the rest is history. Line you trap behind furniture apong the wall and under the counter cabinets.

Oh that top right carpet looks like a good contrast with the walls. you have to have some light in there somehow... That's what I would do.

The grey paint color makes your bedroom look so warm & cozy. Love it! Put dryer sheets in your cabinets & drawers to keep the mice out. They don't like the scent. We used them in our RV to keep the mice away when it was in storage between trips.

Do you have a cat? There is never a hint of a mouse anywhere in the house or the garage with my cats around.

Dealing with mice is never fun. I have cats for that reason. Pretty much have to living in the country. Hope you get back on your program soon and distress some! Stress isn’t healthy as you know.

Kudos to you for being a can do go girl! i think it is in our blood as MN women raised to do for ourselves what we can do on our own.... whether exterminating rodents or painting our home. Great exercise reaching, stretching, up and down ladders but you will be so proud you did it yourself!

Oh Jen so sorry you're not feeling all that great. ❤ You are getting exercise and accomplishing some nice work on your home, so that's always good. You'll be finished soon and miceless too! 👍 And home reno photos are always welcomed. 😊 Love the color btw. 😍

I love seeing your pictures :) Just think how cozy your house will be this winter - a place you will love hanging out! That might help you get through the hard work. I hope you are feeling better soon!

I love the dark gray paint. I could definitely sleep in a room like that. They need you on HGTV. Maybe the take out food is bringing you down a little...I always feel worse when I'm not eating home-cooked food. Bet that will make you feel better.

Glad you are OK Jen! Your home is really coming together nicely. Getting to be quite the showplace with your wonderful choice of colors.

I love the wall colours! Is it all grey or am I seeing a blue as well? Very nice!
