> I am feeling a little better (at least I was yesterday afternoon, it is so hard to tell). I did pay bills (only took 5 hours) yesterday. Today I volunteer at the library.
<<Glad you feel better! God, 5 hours!!! Mine can be like that, too. I don't get it. Think it has something to do with only balancing my checkbook once every 3 or 4 months (and being very happy if it's less than $20 off). :-)>
> I couldn't paint a bathroom. Paint cans are heavy. You have to be careful so you don't spill or drip or make a mess.
<<LOL!! I spilled, dripped, and made a mess. My dog even had blue paws for a bit. :-)>>Once you start you really have to finish. You have to clean up when you stop. The whole idea makes me very tired. So I am impressed. What color?
<<Yeah, you're right. I never thought about it like that. :-) I went from a *taupe* color (tan!) to *periwinkle.* So there was a HUGE difference and I couldn't turn back at all.... I actually bought all the right tools and stuff this time so it was a lot easier. I still have to do some touch ups though. Now *that* takes energy and motivation for me to do. I'm tired of painting now. I don't want to get all the brushes, pans, stirring sticks, etc. all dirty and have to clean up for a few little touch ups. But I know me and my obsessive self. I'll keep seeing that hint of tan peeking through and go absolutely nuts.P.S. Can you pay *my* bills today? :-) I just don't want to look at them.....that's depressing in itself.
