Month: July 2006

I started off the day thinking that all I needed to do today as far as painting was finish out the windows and fix up any spots that needed more paint. Then I talked to my Mom, and she pointed out that it probably needed a second coat. After I whimpered and whined a little, I looked at it and she was right.

So instead of my hour or two of work, I spent about 4 hours putting on the second coat. I still have to go back and do the windows, but I was hungry and just needed a break.

My hand hurts, my shoulder aches, and my arms are sore. The only consulation is that it looks FABULOUS and awesome and beautiful and wonderful.

When I’m done painting, I have furniture to take out of the room and Ikea furniture to put togethter. Who wants to come over and help? Anyone? Anyone?

Tara told me that my master bedroom was huge. It is actually longer than our living room by a few feet. Tonight I think it is growing though. I keep working on cutting in the trim, and it just goes on and on and on and on and on.

Ugh.

Please tell me that rolling the paint in the center of the walls is not going to take this long. I don’t know how much more I can take.

Mike has been told not to read the blog so that I can post pictures. Now I just have to find the energy. I’m not sure if I can lift the camera. Why can’t the decorator fairies just come and take care of it for me?
