We finally started on the dining room... since we may be having company over for Thanksgiving, I wanted to get it done.

I imagine there are a lot of people who do the same thing... Oh Honey, the Holidays are coming up... let's make it even more difficult by starting a home remodeling project!!!

It shouldn't be too bad though... We had to sand one wall since it had wallpaper glue and fix the corner which had a really bad mud job done (and then was covered by the wallpaper).
We'll have to sand the bad corner again and remud.
The other walls are already washed, so after we sand and remud (and sand again) we'll just need to wipe down the walls from the dust and then I can start painting... the ceiling is already done.
On the fourth wall we're putting paneling up since it originally had paneling on it (which we tore down due to 20 some years of smoking in the house). We were going to drywall it, but our walls are made with the old fashioned slates, so it will just be easier to repanel.
That wall will be painted dark green (the rest white), and some of Spyros black and white, nature pictures will go on the green wall in a floating frame, so some of the green shows behind the picutre.
Should look good!

We have a long table in front of the window in the dining room that Little Girl likes to lay on, and yesterday she just kept starring up at the window with a sad look upon her face....

I'm going to go through some of my cookbooks and look for some recipes for Thanksgiving... I'm thinking of making the stuffing in muffin tins so I can put it around the Turkey. And I may make cranberry muffins instead of rolls since they're a bit more healthy.

So what are you making for Thanksgiving?
