  • Refinished slide and thank you

    Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions on my previous post. I know it will all work out, but it's just a little frustrating to me since he isn't home nor does he do the errands and wants me to do it a different way and he's told me before that I could eat out. But, I guess with baby 2 coming, we do need to start thinking differently. And every suggestion I have to save money including getting a doggie door to reduce heating and air costs in the long run from keeping the door open for the dogs is shut down.

    But, we had a good day yesterday together as a family. It's an ICU month, so yesterday is one of four days we will be able to spend together all month.

    If you remember, Garrick & I purchased this for $20 off of Craigslist:

    But it was all faded, but anything we buy new will fade anyway too.

    We found this spray paint by Krylon that bonds to plastic and we refinished it:

    We didn't do the green side as it really wasn't faded. We'll see if the spray paint holds up, but it should. The spray paint can shows a picture of a plastic outdoor play house. Still debating on whether or not to do the slide part of it, but I'm kind of waiting to see whether or not the paint chips before deciding on doing the slide. I also don't know what color I'll want to do it either.
