First thing I changed was the entrances to the right and left side bedrooms. I like to have brick columns on the right and left side of the entrance doors. The brick columns are 1 foot wide x 9 inches out from the wall. The back corridor entrance doors are the same. The doors are not recessed. They are even with the outer wall. They open into the bedrooms. against the side inner walls. There are round rubber light brown door stops on the side walls.

All of the entrance doors and moldings to the bedrooms and the bathrooms are dark brown stain. All the bedroom and bathroom doors have antique brass metal plate and doorknobs. The children's doors are never locked. They are taught not to go into another person's room unless they are invited. The older girl's and adults may keep their doors closed in the day. After laundry is put away.
The younger children 's stained glass windows do not open. stain glass windows have outside storm windows. The stained glass windows have hidden, a spider, a bee, and an ant.

There is an inter-com located in the right corridor outside the lower level kitchen. The inter-com is on the left wall outside the entrance to the kitchen. The inter-com is a closed speaker system that connects with the exercise houses outside the Palace and the pool houses outside the Palace. The inter-com speakers are white with black buttons?
I changed the luggage. The Palace luggage will be kept in a room in the basement of the Meeting House. More about that another time. The closets in the Shoe Closet room where th luggage was kept will now have shelves for Mohamed's children's shoes. There are 7 foot long wall of shelves along the inside wall and 4 feet of shelves on the walls to the side of the entrance doors.

The bathroom is 20 feet long x 18 feet from front to back. The floor tiles are 2 inch x 2 inch light grey ceramic floor tiles.

I decided not to have mirrors in the bedrooms. The only mirrors in the bedrooms would be a round mirror with a metal stand. They would be kept in the drawer with the makeup and the mirrors would be two sided. The other side is magnifyed. There are no mirrors on the closet doors.
If Mohamed has young grand son he can sleep on one of the sofas and Maboto and Abdul can also be there with him. They can sleep with one of the boy's each end and the third boy at the corner of the longer section. The sofas will have sheets on them. The pillows can be put into a pillow case. I will crochet dark maroon colored afghan with medium brown border. The afghan will be kept on the back of the sofas and the children can use them for their blankets when they sleep on the sofas.
I decided we can not have another child. Mohamed's grand daughter needs to have a bedroom to stay in on the weekends and when her parents go out. I thought we could have another girl but it just will not work. 17 orphans will be enough to care for.

The bathroom I made changes. When you enter there is an inside wall to the left and the right. The walls are 4 feet long. The entrance doors open against the walls. The walls are 5 1/2 feet high. they are covered with taupe colored vinyl wallpaper. Taupe is between light brown and medium brown. The doorstops are at the inside bottom end of the doors. The door stops are antique brass with off white rubber stoppers. The door stops are screwed to the bottom inside of the doors at the front end. Alond the bottom of the walls are low lustre dark leaf green ceramic tiles. They match the walls tiles.
There are an oval mirror 1 1/2 feet wide x 3feet long attached to each of the doors on the inside back. There is an antique brass turn lock on the inside of the left door. The lock is about 1 1/2 feet above the doorknob.
The fgloors are 2 inch x 2 inch taupe colored ceramic floor tiles. The tile grout is also taupe.
Straight ahead are the two 4 feet wide sink cabinets. The cabinets are next to each other. They have ornate legs and the cabinets are up from the floor so they can be mopped under neath. The cabinets are ornate and dark brown stain. There are 4 rows of three drawers. A row along the right and left sides of the cabinets. The cabinets have white porcelin knobs for the drawers and doors and antique brass hindges for the doors. a bolt goes throught the knobs and drawers and inside there is a metal washer and nuts to fasten. The doors are the same design. the drawers are 9 inches wide. the center doors are 1 1/4 feet wide each. Under the sink is lined with taupe color vinyl wallpaper and there are dark brown moldings around the inside edges to prevent leaking water from going behind the back of the cabinets.
The sinks and counter top is all one piece. The top is white marble with taupe color veins(if possible).
The faucets, pipes shut offs and metal sink parts are shiny brass. The faucets have lever handles.
There is an ornate mirror centered above each of the sinks. The mirrors are 3 feet square with ornate shiny brass frames. Above the mirrors there are the lights. They are attached to an 8 feet long dark stained ornate board. There are 6 theatrical lights along the board. The light fixtures are round shiny brass.

The bathroom ceilings are 10 feet high and also the peak. The ceiling fans have extension rod so they not interfere with the ceilings when they rotate..

The younger children have whte flannel covered rubber sheets on their beds under the regular bed sheet. The sheets are fused with white flannel and they are water proof incase any of the children have an accident.

I think the bathrooms doorstops have to be light brown round rubber doorstops on the side walls. There is a sign on the left outside entrance door that says OCCUPIED. The sign is bronze plaque. When the doors are closed the bathroom is occupied and you should not enter. During the day men and boys should use the bathrooms out by the Mosque rooms, or in the Cafe or the lower level men's bathroom. When you take a shower in the wing bathrooms there is the antique brass turn lock inside the bathrooms. If the girl's want a shower, the first girl goes in and gets ready and into the shower. The second girl would wait to give her time and then she would go into the bathroom and lock the doors and get ready for her shower. This way they would have privacy. When the first girl is done and dressed she would let the second girl know she is leaving.
There will not be mirrors on the back of the bathroom entrance doors. The side walls are 4 feet and 4 inches wide.
The bathroom walls are 9 feet high at the right and left sides. The front and back walls have the peaks. The round windows are centered in the front and back peaks.
I changed the knobs on the sink cabinets. Instead there are antique brass drawer pulls and antique brass knobs on the doors. The hindges are also antique brass. Under the sinks there are three cans of white powder cleanser. Three bottles of liquid hand soap and the white plastic soap dish with the white nylon scrubby in the soap dish.Taupe vinyl wallpaper lines under the sink. There are dark brown moldings around the inside edges.
On the top of the sinks in the center there are five white porcelin toothbrush holders. They hold 6 brushes. The girl's have one, My older daughters family, my younger daughter's family, and Mohamed, myself and the younger children.
The drawers. The girl's each have a drawer. They have the ones on the right and left sides of the sink cabinets. In the center Mohamed has top drawer, I have top drawer. My older daughter has the two middle drawers for her and children and my younger daughter and husband have lower two drawers for them and the children.
The drawers have hair brush and comb, hair gel, deoderant if they want it in the drawer, the girl's and ladies may have rechargable dry/shower shaver. The men can have shaving equipment.To the right and left of the sink cabinet there is a two feet space and then the outside shower stall walls. There is a white rectangle rubber wastebasket between the sink cabinet and the right shower outside walls.The shower walls are 6 feet high. The outside walls are tiled with the dark leaf green ceramic tiles. dark leaf green is between medium green and dark green color.The ceramic tiles have matching green grout. There are a white ceramic towel bar on the outside shower walls. The towel bar holds two hand towels.
The top of the latrine stalls and the top of the shower stalls are 4 inches and they have white shiny 4 inch x 4 inch size tiles.The walls inside the latrine stalls and the shower stalls are also white shiny 4 inch x 4 inch ceramic tiles.
The mirrors above the sinks are 2 feet high x 3 feet long. The mirrors have ornate shiny brass frames.

First there are a few things to mention. I did not consider the width of the bedroom and bathroom walls. They are 9 inches wide. This means that 6 more feet must be added to the lenght of the side corridors and the back corridors. This includes the corridors and the outer window walls. The length will now be 90 feet long.
Any closets or cabinets that are 7 feet high would be 6 1/2 feet high so they can fit through the enetrance doors. Hutches and 2 piece cabinets can still be 7 feet high because they are 2 piece and screwed together.
The beds in the center side bedrooms are queen size beds with queen size sheets, pillowcases and pillows.
In the bathrooms the sink counter top has a backsplash. There also are another toothbrush holder for Amaraa, Neeta, Abdul, Maboto and the Haitian boy.

[WitchQueen]

The bathtubs are 4 1/2 feet long and 3 1/2 feet wide. They are 1 foot out from the walls.
The shower stalls are 74 inches high. This way the green leaf ceramic tiles will come out even because they are 6 inches x 8 inches. There will be a 2 inch border around all the tiles including the white shiny tiles in the showers and latrine stalls. The 2 inch borders are also dark leaf green color tiles. The borders have embossed flowers.

I think we can have Pakastani girl teen in the extra bedroom. I am really sad about the floods. If we can put the children at the Palace, we would.
If grand children have to come to this wing we will have Maboto, Abdul and Mohamed's grandson sleep on the sofas in the TV Sitting rooms. Also My grand son and the Hatian boy will sleep on the sofas in the other TV Sitting Room. We will make them a bed on the Sofas. The younger children have 2 pillows each in their rooms so if we need extra we will use them. The off white afghans with the brown trim will be kept in the bottom dresser drawer in the 1 st bedroom. This is where my 2 year old granddaughters stay. The younger children's dressers hav three lower drawers and the 2 top drawers .
If there are other grandchildren they can sleep in Maboto, Abdul, the Hatian boy and my grandson's rooms. They will have to bring their clothes from the other side of the Palace and keep them on the Mosque Benches in the corridor. This includes Mohamed's granddaughter. The children have their own nice rooms on the other side of the Palace. This is just for weekends and when their parents are out.
We need to have 5 wood folding clothes racks in the corridor between the credenza and tfirst flower pots. After showers people of the wing will have a place on the racks for their towels and washclothes to dry. They can use the towels and wash clothes for 3 or 4 days and then they will be washed. The wings have white towels and the boys have off white towels. This way the towels can be bleached. I think we have to do this.
Those sweaty little kids.
