The painter came on Monday, but as most remodeling jobs go, there wasn't a drop of paint on the walls by the time he left. (Couldn't get paint.) Tuesday went smoother. Bobby, the painter, got a couple of coats of the red on most of the front rooms--living room, entry way, and hall--but the paint shop spilled a gallon of the bedroom paint and had to start over. Then, as Bobby began trying to pull down the wall border in the bedroom, he ran into more snags. ("I think they put this stuff up here with Elmer's glue!")
As of this writing, I think he's nearly done with the front rooms, and I'm hoping he's started painting the bedroom. I'm not sure where we'll sleep tonight... The living room is in chaos, as is the bedroom--plus, this paint really smells bad!
I still have some shopping to do for bedroom accessories (grin)--plus, now that I've changed the bedroom colors, I must change the bathroom accessories as well... Wouldn'tcha know!
Thing is, I need to get the house back in order by Saturday afternoon, for the big END-OF-SCHOOL party! :-) (If I believed in luck I'd ask for some now!)
More later as the remodeling saga continues...
