We finally started painting! Ok, but it was the exterior instead of the interior and more because it was required by our HOA than really having wanted to do it at this point in time, but it’s paint! It’s color! I’m happy about it. My dogs aren’t very happy about it. The slider door to the backyard was taped up for two days so we had to take them out through the garage to the yard. We learned the hard way that they do not like going through the garage. It was the worst thing in the world to them. It is funny how that works.
They also did not get to go play outside as often as usual. They cried. They whined. They’re not spoiled, I swear. But it is finishing up today and I am glad to have it done. It has been difficult. I’ve had to park down the street instead of in the garage. Not that I’m really complaining about having to walk four houses down, it’s not that bad! But, just one of those inconveniences that you have to get around for a few days when you have any contractors at your house. I am not looking forward to how “inconvenient” it will be when we get the interior done.
But, I digress. I am happy that my house is a new color. I am not a big fan of beige and our house was beige. Now it is going to be a nice pretty gray blue with some red accents. It makes me want to pick up the paintbrush again. Maybe that’s what I’ll do – just paint a bunch of big pictures throughout the house. I don’t know that my family would appreciate it as much as I would, I’m not a very talented painter! I just enjoy it. AND today is my evening off of everything so, if I really want to, I’ll have the opportunity. Hmmmmm…… J
