Pink Paint Be Gone

So this is my first supper in the new home. Technically last night was, but it was nothing to write home about. It was a little overcooked. Tonight's dinner was pizza, applesauce, and caramel corn. Great combination isn't it. But this was an improvement over the day before.


I started out the morning early to get a start on some painting. Note to self, make sure you know where some dishes are so you will be able to eat some food. I will have to write Starbucks and let them know that their cups work really well as cheerios bowl.

So here is the after shot of the laundry room. It is much better I do believe.

Here is the before and during shot of the laundry room. Much to my surprise, it only took one coat of primer and one coat of the paint. Yes there are some touch ups, but not too bad.

Here is some very important advice, "Don't get food poisoning when you have a lot of work to do and lots of painting to get done. It makes the day a lot longer." I underestimated last night the extent of the cleaning that would need to be accomplished. The walls had a layer of dust, the master bathroom took two hours to clean, the kitchen was disgusting and the floor under appliances was horrid. Needless to say, some areas are clean now and some need to be worked on. Taking a break for the night and going to start putting away some dishes in the kitchen. That is if I can find everything.
