if you...

{you know "IF YOU GIVE A MOUSE A COOKIE"??}

if you are in the bathroom for an extended period of time {don't ask}

you might decide the shelf that has ALWAYS been there is ridiculous and you can't stand it.

so you might rip it off the wall.

then you will have to hunt in the workbench for spackle and spackle the holes.

then, you will have to find the sander in the basement and sand the wall.
then clean up the mess sanding makes
{i ALWAYS forget that sanding makes a mess!}

then you will have to hunt AGAIN for the paint.
and, of course, it's a wall with stripes and you will need BOTH colors.
you will have to look through no less than 50 gallons {maybe exaggerating a bit} of paint to find the colors {half of those colors don't even exist in this house anymore...a project for another day...or another life ;-)}

then you will paint it and put ALL the supplies that have taken over the bathroom away and you will think twice next time you rip a shelf off a wall!

LOL!!! I have to say- I'm SO impressed that you got beyond ripping the shelf off the wall. I mean dude, you spackle and sand and paint and clean up too?! You go Courtney the Builder! "Can she fix it? YES SHE CAN!"

I would have just ripped the shelf off the wall and then told Brett he needed to fix it...and then it would have sat like that for an absurd amount of time b/c in our house we still cannot get a handle on how to accomplish the "House To Do" list with little people around. We aspire to be more like you Cassadas! You rock!
