Not finished yet...

Just some of the mess...

Can you see a patern here??
The partern of the "No one wall finished"!

We have a new shower door!
See the towell in the first picture? It was there to contain the spilling water and my mom got tired of that!

This part is finished...

And this one too! Finally my bed is at its place again...

Time to sleep...

My mom did as much as she could these days. Her back still hurts so, she could not do much! She has a week to recover and then, the next weekend she will try to continue the painting.
My grandpa told her to call someone to help her but she is more stubborn... than me!


I hope you all had a great weekend!

Tell your mom not to be so stubborn and to get help! Everybody needs a little sometimes.

I'm glad things are starting to get back to normal for you to sleep in, though!

That is a lot of work for Mom to do all by herself. We think your Grandpa is right. Tell her to take it easy. What is done so far looks so nice - good job.

The new shower door looks great-your Mom should be applauded for being such a hard worker-even with a sore back!

Oskar said...

She should get the help so she doesn't get hurt more!

I bet you have been a super supervisor!

That really looks great!! Your mom should rest after all of that work! Mom helped a woman paint her new house decades ago. Mom had more paint on her than the walls. The woman never asked for her to help again! Painting is hard work!! It looks really nice! Lots of love, Holly and mom

Oooh, that is a lot of work. We hope your mom doesn't hurt herself. But you're there to make sure she behaves.

The color looks great, I like it. The shower doors are much better. It is all a mess for a bit but once it is al done, it will look really nice. Tell mom to watch herself or call someone, tell her not to be stubborn!!

I don't suppose your mummy would like to come and fix up our home :P It looks great, Lorenza!

Cappy the Eskie said...

Hi Lorenza - that IS a lot of work, especially with a sore back.
Your Mom definitely needs to get some help with that painting project even though she's done a great job so far.

Hugs and yips,

Your Mom has gotten a lot done. The shower door looks great. There is just something about doing the work yourself that makes it so worth while.:)

Looks like a lot of work to us and for your Mom too. She needs to be careful.Glad your bed is back in place so you can get a great nap Lorenza. Have a great week.

Dexter said...

Oh, I hope that maybe mom will relent and get somebody to help. She needs to take care of her back so that she can do happy fun times with YOU! But I must say things are really coming along and look nice.

Ruby and Penny said...

Hi Lorenza
Your mom is very handy. She did a wonderful job on the shower door and paint.
Hope her back feels better soon.
Love Ruby & Penny

MadameMoiselle said...

The bed looks so inviting.. You are such a lucky girl..

Yes ! Please tell mom to be less stubborn.. It's not something to take likely with all those backaches..

As much as painting can be fun, but i guess its better if she got someone to help.. Preferrably a hunk..

Tu mama fez um ótimo trabalho! E você supervisionou muito bem, Lorenza! Acho que as duas precisam de um bom descanso!
Boa semana.

OMD Lorenza we thinks that the walls look great, we likes it. The new shower door is much better too!

NOW, you have GOT to talks to your Moms! This is very important, really!

OK, your Moms is young, her back hurts now, but only every once in a while. IF your Mom does not STOP being stuborn she will have SEVERE problems with her back when she gets older. SO PLEASE tell your Mom to HIRE some HELP!

Because we ALL care about her and want her to be pain free when she is older!

woo woos, Tessa

Looks like you have an awesome new shower door. Always nice when things work the way they are supposed to huh? :)

Mayzie said...

Your mom's more stubborn than YOU? Wow, Lorenza! That's really saying something...BOL! It looks like things are coming along real nice. But my mom says to tell your mom that sometimes asking for help is a good thing. If we were close to Mexico, we'd come help!

Hi Lorenza!
Oh it is looking great! Sorry that your mom hurt her back. I hope she is feeling better soon.

Kasha said...

Wish I could help you paint! It looks great! Hey my shower door does the same thing. Is it just that easy to replace it? That's is good to know!

Dewey Dewster said...

Wow Lorenza.....painting is a hard job and a dirty one. Gram always has more paint on her than the wall once she is done. Everything looks very nice and I bet you are happy that yer bed is back in the right place.

Enjoy yer week....

Lorenza! Your renewed housey looks great! Mom has a great talent for remodeling!!! If you don't watch it HGTV might recruit her for one of those tv shows!!! Tell her to get all the rest she can before she gets the call and then off to her own tv show!!!

Hugs & smoochies! XOXO

Hi Lorenza, some humans are pretty stubborn!
We hope your mom's back holds out - tell her to take her time.
She is doing a great job and the flat is looking smart.
You will be glad when things are back to normal.
We dogs can't be doing with changes.
love and kisses

Sonic said...

Painting the wall is tough work! Lorenza you have to help your momma as much as you can, if she won't get help. When my Humans did it, they asked a whole bunch of friends to come over and help paint the walls. Your momma should too!

My mom empathizes with yours. Her new doctor emphasized the healing powers of ibuprofen and she's getting another MRI. Maybe your mommy could use some help too?
Be well mommy and Lorenza

Very nice - but aren't you also going to need a new closet for your collection? :)

Mochi and Bali said...

Your mom is doing a great job, but I think she needs a break. You look like you've been working too hard too! I sure hope you got lots of treats!

Have a great day! :)

Unknown said...

HI Lorenza - thanks for visiting my blog while my humans were away and not forgetting about me! :-)

Gosh - Hsin-Yi is so impressed that your human is doing all the work herself! My humans are hopeless at DIY and can't even hammer a nail straight! :-) But I agree - it would be good if your human could slow down and get some rest - take it easy, especially if her back is hurting!

By the way, Lorenza, you must pop over to my blog when you have time and check out my latest post which is all about the doggies my humans saw in Taipei. I want to know what you think of those Dachshunds in their own luxury "private car"! :-)Would you like something like that too or would you prefer to walk by yourself?!

Jemma Chihuahua said...

The painting looks great, but you have to persuade your mom that she needs rest to heal her back! Mom has back pain sometimes and I hear about how awful it is...

ocmist said...

We are doing catchup, but we sure hope that your Mom didn't stubborn herself into bed. Grammy has a hurt back and hip and she KNOWS that you can't push those things to far or you end up on disability like she is. Backs are just really picky things that can cause some real problems! I know! OC
