Jill's Journal: Rob’s been working so hard on all the physical repair/upgrading/beautifying of our house inside and out lately, whereas my contributions (with three little kids “helping”) are more along the lines of decluttering/purging/packing. But last night, after the girls’ bedtime, we roped my sister, Kristi, into the mix and the three of us set out to paint the master bedroom. It was last done 11 1/2 years ago when we moved in and definitely needed a fresh coat of paint and a more neutral color.
Armed with paintbrushes and margaritas, we primered and painted and drank until the wee hours of the morning. Kristi’s and my margarita consumption and giggles soon outpaced our painting until Rob finally took away our brushes with orders to simply keep him company. It was close to 2:00 a.m. before the walls were fully transformed from a bold, deep green to a gentle “wicker.”
I can’t speak for those two, but it certainly was the most fun I’ve ever had working on a home project! Kristi's photo on the right confirms it.
