This weekend I had a horribly disfiguring accident.  There were witnesses, and people are still commenting on it.  I’m sure, with time I’ll get past it and everything will return to normal.  What happened, you ask?

I got paint in my hair.

Not just any paint, mind you… Kilz Oil-Based Primer.  I was painting with it Friday night and I’m still pulling little white specks off of my arms and hair.  This stuff is persistent.  Not to mention noxious, once I had 3 walls painted Friday night I nearly passed out I was so dizzy.  And to think, people go buy illegal stuff like marijuana and LSD when all they really have to do is crack open a can of Kilz for the same effect.  I wonder if you can get a DUI for an open container of Kilz?

Anyway, now that we know it’s a Boy on the way I couldn’t put it off any longer.  With Laura’s directions in hand I spent the weekend rearranging the house and painting 3 rooms.  The gray study became the new blue boy’s room, Rhianna’s pink room became the new green guestroom/study, and the dark green guest room became Rhianna’s new pink room.  It’s pretty, and bright.  I never really believed the old adage that bright colors make a room look bigger, but now that I’ve seen it in action it’s true. 

So I spent Friday & Saturday doing that, and Sunday was spend mowing my lawn (far overdue).  Took all morning but I got it done.  Now I’ve just got to get the paint off my hair before the jokes about grey hairs start.
