So far this week, that’s what I’ve been. And, no, it’s not from breathing paint fumes almost every day at our house :)
Instead of my usual Monday, Tuesday, Friday work days, this week I worked Monday and I’m working tomorrow and Friday (5:30 to 2). That doesn’t sound like a big deal (it’s just one day different), but I’ve got in such a routine on my usual off-days that it’s really gotten me mixed up on what day it is! I think I prefer getting 2 of the 3 days over with at the beginning of the week, but at least I didn’t have to work a late night on Tuesday I guess. Every 4th week, I’ll work Monday, Thursday, Friday instead of my normal days. Don’t try to figure it out…Travis can’t even remember when I work.
Update on the painting project: The master bedroom and bathroom are finished…COMPLETELY!! :) I’m really, really, really happy with the way the colors turned out. Now, we just have to get the outlet covers back on and do a little cleaning, and those rooms will be ready for our stuff! We’ve also got the kitchen almost finished. We did the cut-in twice this weekend (first coat Saturday and second coat Sunday), and then I rolled the walls for the first coat last night. We’ll need to do a second coat, I’m sure, but I think we might get away with just one gallon of paint. Yay! Now I have to say…it’s pretty green. It’s a lot of green! But, I do like the color, and I think once we get the fridge and stove back in place and hang curtains and pictures on the walls, it won’t be so overpowering…I hope :) This Saturday, we’re getting our living room furniture delivered, so I’m super excited about that! I’m afraid it’s going to be hard to get Travis up out of the recliner to paint once he sits in it cause it’s so comfortable :)
This weekend was like a little taste of spring. I can’t wait for warmer weather! I feel like I’m just a happier person when it’s nice outside. Apparently the groundhog didn’t see his shadow this morning, so maybe spring is just around the corner…
I guess that’s enough rambling for today. One of these days, I’ll take some pictures of our painting progess so you can see how it’s going. Hope you’re having a great week so far! And happy birthday this past Monday to you, Gran! I love you and hope you had a wonderful day :)
