Painting - Again
Yes, that's right, I'm painting again. After doing the bathroom I had no intention of painting again. I thought I probably deserved a break and would hire a professional to do it the next time. Then my hubby was fixing a spot near the ceiling and we were discussing what to use to cover it up. I knew I had bought enough paint to do the living room before I started painting the bedroom then I broke my knee and it never got done. I just figured before we decided to move to the cabin, I would have someone come in and do the ceiling and walls in the living room. We debated whether to just touch up the spot with the paint I had, which was just a little different from the original or heaven help us, repaint the walls. We were definitely not up to the ceiling and I thought as long as I had some help from him, we could do it. In my younger days doing this all myself would never have been a problem but now the thought of that step stool makes my knees wobble. I did too much myself yesterday and almost had another incident with the stool so today I handed the high jobs to the hubby and we got the hallway done. There's a lot of work that goes into painting even before you open the can of paint and that can be hard on anyone with a bum knee. Now only one wall, with little prepping, and an archway that we can finish by tomorrow. But for today a little time off to do other things and let our bodies recoup. And I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm thinking about using the rest of the paint in the family room.
