The Painting Saga (Part Seven - Final)

I'M DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I put the switchplates back on ... painted the moldings, window sill, and door frames ... and spent more time than I ought to have touching up the places where wall meets ceiling or molding. That was rather amusing ... since I painted the walls blue and the ceiling and moldings/doorframes white, I found blue splots along the corners of the ceiling. When I tried to fix the ceiling with white paint, I got white on the blue walls. Then I took blue to fix the walls, and got more blue on the white ceiling. You get the picture. I finally quit ... decided to remember the Adult Bible Fellowship (adult Sunday school) lesson from yesterday about perfectionism (summary: only God is perfect ... give it up!) and quit.

Quit ... done ... packed up the painting stuff ... threw out the garbage ... and turned my attention to everything else that I've been ignoring around my house for the past week. Hmmph!! :-)

So ... don't look for any more painting updates. I will try to blog another time or two before I go out of town for the Fourth of July ... I'll be going to Las Vegas with a friend. In the meantime, don't forget to look at pictures of my new twin nephews (same pics that I posted about a week or so ago).
