What has been keeping me so busy?

Much construction and renovation has been happening at the salon. We have been there for 2 complete weekends now.
The first weekend with not many volunteers, Jeff, Sue and myself renovated the bathroom and color room {I wish I had taken photos}.
Then i got smart and hung up a volunteer sign in back this weekend we had a lot more volunteers, and Nelly was pretty much recovered from eye surgery. I have lots of pictures, I will probably post more on FB when we are all done, this blogger takes so long to load a bunch of them!
But here are some before and after pictures of the nail/pedicure room and the shampoo room. Note that we tore things down and out first before our before pictures {LOL} but we did convert the "break room" into the Purple Rain Nail Lounge {(heehee) that song came on when we started painting it}!
This is a shot standing inside the nail lounge looking out the new doorway to the shampoo lounge.


Yep here is where the door used to be! {{new FLOORS}}!!!!!


WOWZA what a difference!!!!!
So pretty, I just wanna live there!!!
Hey look at Captain Nelly and her faithful mates Ferg & Sue Fish!
This is the shampoo lounge.
Note Ferg wasn't really crabby, look at that face LOL
Woohoo so nice!!!!!

And we are not done yet!

Proof of Spring...

A sweet little bird...

The buds of the Magnolia trees today {March 5th}

This is what they looked like April 24th of last year...


It is amazing that these little tiny fuzzy buds bloom into the pillowy magnolia flowers.


Aside from Willow Trees these are my favorite!

The snow is almost gone!

Some of the grass was green {{hooray!}}!!


While it did not get to 50 degrees today it was lovely to go for a nice long walk and be in the sunshine! We feel like bears coming out from hibernation!
Have a great weekend everyone!
