Finally! Painting begins!

Today is the day. After months of trying to figure out what color of paint. Gypsum is the color I finally decided on and I hope it is the color in my mind. Here are the before pictures. This is William's old bedroom.

I never noticed how many angles these upstairs rooms have. Then I noticed that every room in the house has angles.

Here is the next part we will paint it is the part over the stairs.

The ceilings are about 15 feet. I rarely got on those shelves that you see that are so dusty now, because I shake so bad getting on them to clean them It takes me a bit of time to get over my fear of heights and I spend days psyching myself up. I just don't know who will paint this. Which means Ron.

I think with any job its the starting. There will be lots and lots of cleaning out. We have lived here now 15 years. Longer than I have ever lived in any house in my entire life. The boys are going to get their man cave.
I guess the lesson here is when you are the two youngest and you had to put up with the most from the older ones, you end up getting to have lots of room to yourselves.

Here are the painting things we had to buy. We haven't painted in 15 years either. So everything had to be new.

Hopefully I will get to show you after pictures sooner than later. Oh one more thing this made me laugh yesterday. I guess that now Bigfoots making themselves known. If the park service makes an announcement.

Anyway have a great Saturday,

“Looking backward through life, one can see the points of change like great locks through which one glides on a flood wave, so smoothly, on such irresistible power that one is hardly aware of any movement. But life is never the same again. One has gone through the lock and lives on a new level.”
