So as promised, here are a couple of pics of the new bedroom, a.k.a. "What Eric has been doing for the last two weeks".

As you can see, the walls are very blue. We put in glossy stripes to kind of call to mind sateen sheets. It looks very swank, I think--Jen's taste in decorating is as refined as her taste in life partners. ;) Incidentally, the chair is as popular as I thought it would be--Charlie especially likes to sleep in it. With luck I can get a shot of him in it, it's so huge it makes him look like a puppy again.

This shot is from the door, and shows off the new curtains. The picture really doesn't do them justice; they actually are mostly blue, with a golden sheen to them that you can only see at an angle, which works out really well.

The floor is the same as we put in the office and guest room, so NO MORE CARPET for us. Yay! On the downside, in the morning it sounds like the dogs are tap dancing, which is even more impossible to sleep through than their previous morning routine. Ah well.
