Color

After the all-white walls of parsonage living, I always wanted colored walls in our home.  It has been arriving slowly.  While Gerry was away, my big "project" was to paint the bottom half of the dining room walls, something I have been planning for a long time.   It was a very difficult and challenging project, once I got into it. I moved the furniture in toward the table in the center of the room,  but I still had to crawl around on my hands and knees to get at painting the walls!   I was so sore and achy when it was all over!  Plus, I spent many hours and days on the molding.  There are actually ten different edges and curves on one piece of molding!  (I used a tiny brush.)

I did show my work to Gerry last night without waiting for him to discover it.  When he got him after midnight, his first question was:  "So what did you change?"  Apparently,  making changes is something I do often enough that he expects it.  He thinks it is beautiful!  (Wise man.)

Now we have one day of a regular routine before heading off for a V&M visit tomorrow.

It's nice to have some cheerful color to liven things up.
