and amen.
I...I will paint no more, forever, amen.<br /><br />and amen.<br /><br />I've mentioned before how I go a little nutty with painting when I'm pregnant...well, I'm certainly not pregnant right now, and thinking of painting makes me go into fetal position and suck my thumb. (just a little)<br /><br />We just hired a painter (finally!) to help us get our house ready to sell. He was not full of tact...he laughed at all my mistakes, and all my color choices. I told him about my crazies, but he still laughed. I did not. /:<br /><br />I support your decision to NOT PAINT EVER. And I totally understand the "benefit of our relationship" idea--good idea!Jamie Lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05545375584768570518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8598862945390612019.post-4222418070514189122012-01-24T12:19:00.155-08:002012-01-24T12:19:00.155-08:00I had never painted a single stroke until we moved...I had never painted a single stroke until we moved into our house. I have since helped my husband paint 5 rooms and it is SO TIME CONSUMING. I find the actual painting part to be kind of wonderful. It's one of those tasks that doesn't require a lot of concentration, but it has a definite result when you're done. But the PREP before you paint is AWFUL. I haaaaaaate taping off the room and putting down a drop cloth and everything. And I hate cleaning up the brushes and dishes and stuff after we're done.Life of a Doctor's Wifehttp://lifeofadoctorswife.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8598862945390612019.post-18491157768709480712012-01-20T06:35:19.071-08:002012-01-20T06:35:19.071-08:00The color is beautiful, very nice and I can see ho...The color is beautiful, very nice and I can see how looking at that super prepared/neat painter could scare you away. I don't dream of painting, I have nightmares about painting. We need fresh paint in 3 more rooms before we can sell our house. Painting isn't all its cracked up to be. And if I didn't have to paint, I certainly wouldn't. It is a job that takes forever when you have kids around! I admire your decision to not paint. If you want to, you are welcome to come to my house... I'll pay for the supplies:-)From A Doctors Wifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02410694740641116438noreply@blogger.com
