Missed yesterday because was too busy 'prettily arranging' craft stuff in the newly put together flat pack furniture and emptying what was my daughter's room. Absolute bedlam - there was craft stuff on the floor still waiting patiently for a home; the other bedroom had to be emptied - so more stuff was piled along the landing and at the top of the stairs. Couldn't get to the loo because I just threw it all out on to the landing - lol. Health and safety nightmare - lol. It will be an adventure getting into bed tonight - lol.
Anyways, as the morning progressed, said room got emptier and emptier, wheelie bin got fuller and fuller, car got even more fuller with stuff for the dump. Honestly, the stuff we accumulate - this has certainly been a down-sizing exercise. Finally with almost empty room, I started doing that thing that hundreds of men across the land are being nagged to do this weekend - decorating. First off the ceiling - there I am perched on my sturdy (well almost) step ladder with - would you believe - a 4" brush. Number one son has obviously been down the single lady's paintbrush box - lol .... The ceiling is aertex and it's only getting one coat - hence a brush and not a roller - but 4 inches - wait until I see him next ....
This room was last decorated ages ago, I'm ashamed to say. My daughter did it (well you have to let them have a go, don't you). I liked her colour scheme but the trouble was she hadn't learnt about cutting in and not going over the lines. Everytime, I went in there, I just used to shut my eyes - lol.
Doing the walls tomorrow .... It will be good to go back to work for the rest - lol ....
