RETRO Lobby Done !
Well it's actually ....98% done ! Just in time for Superbowl!
I just have to hang the curtains and touch up some marks I made on the new paint. Oh yeah and put down a few more tiles seeing as I ran out of white ones.
Here is the story about the floor ......I bought the tiles 3.5 years ago when I started my HT. Now since then HD has stopped selling the tiles so I called Armstrong thursday to see where I could get some more tiles they told me the tiles were a HD exclusive and to go down to my local HD and they could order some . So I will go tomorrow and order them.
As some of you know I have had the worst 3.5 years that a person could have.
The reason it's taken me so long to finish the HT and Lobby is because ....
I got cancer in Sept. 2000,chemo didn't work so I had a stem cell transplant. As soon as I recovered from that I got into a major jet ski crash (June 2001) that entailed 3 surgeries and over a year of rehab, I had just had the 3rd surgurey and still had 3 physical therapy appointments when I had my cancer check-up (Nov 2003)..well it was back and better than ever..LOL. This time I had a bone marrow transplant (may 2003)which has left me nearly housebound...not too bad though ...I've been catching up watching movies .
So check out the pictures of my lobby and let me know what ya think. Hey I'm happy I finally got it done. To see them look at my webpage , the link is in my user profile. Hey can someone tell me if/how I can put my picture on this site?
