Changed

We have had to move our foster son of 2 years on (won't go into that) but due to many mental health issues we just had to call it a day.
He kindly left a few parting pressies, which I have had to clean up and it took over three days to re-do the bedroom.
Have made the colour paint by adding other colours to a big tin of cream, but I think it looks ok......just waiting the next one which I have a funny feeling will be very soon

This is my attempt of now.............






This was before.....see the name and how he sprayed the ceiling.......that was only two of the leaving pressies

I like it. It looks nice and fresh and modern too.

My foster dog used to leave me pressies when she first arrived (glad your foster son didn't leave you those kind of pressies ).

I think you're a star YS x

Goodness me Poor lad (and poor you having to clean it up).

I talked to a staff nurse once in a neurosurgery ward when I was in hospital and he sad that a lot of times people do things like that out of sheer frustration. He said some stroke patients throw it because they are so angry about not being able to communicate.

Shame about Billy, hon, but you did so well with him. I'm sure some of your and Pat's goodness will have rubbed off on him.

Here's hoping your next foster is a little easier on you.

Big hugs - the room looks fab x0x
