Busy busy busy
I’m back to trying to paint whenever I can. The Summer of Paint, 2008, continues. I still lack a few hours of staining the front fence - and all of the back fence - but because it’s the middle of the summer, I am on an outdoor work hiatus. But with the a/c working better upstairs, I’m back on track with getting E’s future room ready. Painting trim is *so* much fun!
After the trim is done, it’s carpet and moving time. And I’ll be on to painting the dining room. It’s perhaps our worst-looking room downstairs, and it’s going to be a bear. But we’ve begun buying drapes for the windows, so the walls need to get up to par. I’m quite honestly scared to get in there and see what’s behind the wallpaper; I’m afraid the prep work will take longer than the painting.
And then it’ll be back to the fence. I’ve got a lot of work to do before the Summer of Paint, 2008, ends.

I painted my living room and hallway deep red. It took about 6 coats of paint and two coats of peptol pink primer. I would love to say I will never paint again. If I was wealthy, I’d pay to have it done. To be honest, I still need to work on the trim!
