I'll Be Danged. Proud of Myself. I Had Goals for Monday & Tuesday and I Got Them Done. Went into Painting Mode All Day

I'm glad I taped the rooms the night before, as it made it easier to get to the nitty gritty in the morning, always taking much longer than I anticipate. Bathroom one was done by 1 pm (3 hours) and bathroom two was done by 5 pm (3 hours). I took a break between both, as I had different colors and needed to reset the equipment. I'm share pictures down the road, as both rooms are drying and, sadly, I painted myself out of a shower. They need to dry and I locked up both spaces without thinking.

I finished in time to record an episode of The Write Time with Ellen Oh, and afterwards found time to walk Karal before it got dark. She's weirded out when I get into project mode because I change everything around and make quite a mess. I cook the same way. I'm all over the place but it gets done.

I return back to campus today for professional development (actually to support a Syracuse faculty member also with me at Fairfield) and then I will return home to finish the bathrooms (well put everything back together. 

Pam said, "Bathrooms are the worst to pain because of the crevices and corners." Yup. I will be sore all day today as I was in every sort of Yoga position getting it all done. 

But it's done. I've only painted one wall in the living room for contrast. Chitunga painted his room when he moved back after his Masters. Now both bathrooms are done and the hallway upstairs. I like a lot of light and the home to be bright, so I was good with the neutral paints the house came with. Without Cynde to help out, I don't trust my choices. I'm happy, though, with the way the bathrooms came out, but now I'm rethinking the curtains and wall-hangings. We shall see. I love being in my home, but I'm really not the domestic upkeep type. I bought the home I did because it was move-in perfect without needing much. 11 years, the walls have started to need attention. Now that the house is quiet and there aren't a million other things going on, I'm focusing on the space I live so it is inhabitable by me.

And with, I'm gone for the day. Ciao.
