I didn't get to my painting till the afternoon and then after working for hours, about 6pm, I thought man it is stifling! That's Ohio weather for you. We go from wearing a jacket to wanting to strip to our unmentionables. Good grief...
I repainted the lower part of the wall the same color it was before... But I wanted to go a bit lighter on the upper part... So I decided on a color had it mixed and went home.. It was tooooo white. grrrrr. I do not have a knack for choosing paint colors.
So I went back and asked them to punch it up a shade... Well, that wasn't working and I was afraid they were going to give me something I couldn't work with at all... Sooo I went home and did a mix job of my own... I mixed some of the darker with some of the lighter and tried it. Nope, so I went back to the drawing board... added more dark. Nope, more dark... then ooops, it's the same color that I wanted to change. So add more of the white... and more white.... and finally a color I think will work...
I painted the walls but because it is sooo humid the paint is not drying very fast. I will have to wait till tomorrow to see if it covered well enough and if I like it... Hopefully the next time I paint the kitchen it is in a different house...
I am exhausted... I cleaned up my paint mess and now I have to clean up messy me....
What a day... What a week... This is how my husband works everyday... I don't know how he does it...
I did have lunch with a friend and put up my plants outside and a hummingbird feeder... but the majority of the day was inside working... I wanted to to plant my veggies, ran out of time, so hopefully I can do that tomorrow.
I hope I can get someone to help me with SSS#1 tomorrow... I am excited to see it. And kayaking... oh if only I had more time... 24 hours does not seem to be cutting it!
i am with you! not enough time... ever!
