This is Embarassing
2:17 PM**Update! Voting is happening now! Click here for more info.**
This is our master bedroom. The place you go to unwind and relax. A place where all your stresses from the day melt away. Calming. Soothing. Comforting.
Ugh, I wish! As you can see our room looks like what you might find in a crappy dorm room, except its bigger and we have nice floors. The saddest part of all is that we have actually put a fair amount of work into this room. It started out like this.
And then it looked like this.
Before finally ending up like this.
And then we pretty much moved our stuff in and gave up. We've got no headboard, or and sort of real bed frame.
Our bed side tables are terrible!!!!!
Our dressers are not that much better.
Even our dirty clothes are ashamed to be in our room.
If I'm not being blinded by the lighting in our room,
I'm catching the glare from our under dressed windows.
Even Barbara dreams of a better life. And if looking at this wasn't enough to make you want to cry....
then just look to the other side of the room for twice the fun!
This is where a glimmer of hope arrives.

Well, it is big and you have closet space. Our room is 9 1/2 foot square and no closet. Count yourself blessed.
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing your first picture I was all "THAT'S NOT THAT BAD!" But then you showed everything up close... I truly enjoyed the real view of your bedside table as there is a constant pile of clothes next to my side of the bed at all times. Your picture made me not feel so bad.
ReplyDeleteAll that being said, I will shout your need for a makeover from the mountain tops. Because no self-respecting adult should have those white Target thingies as a bedside table. AT LEAST an upgrade to Ikea is called for. LOL.
I can't lie anymore, this is AFTER I spent about 15 minutes cleaning up. Just take 25% of those clothes out of the hamper and sprinkle them around. Add some shoes here and there, and some crumpled up receipts here and there. Maybe I should have left it as it was. If I don't win this I may actually have to take care of this myself!
DeleteYou can count on me!
