Good afternoon everybody!! Hugs and love and freedom from pain and worries to each of you...

My update:

I've had the past week off work, but working at home for my vacation. I painted our front entryway and three bathrooms. I had to strip wallpaper borders from two baths, and cover a dark grey painted-on border in the third. I will never ever put up wallpaper again if it's a house I plan to stay in. It took two days just to deal with that! Then I had to repair and put on a primer coat before painting.

I used this blue masking painter's tape. The cat was peeling it off and eating it. He'd eat a strip, cough and gag, then eat some more! He "helped me" all week long!

Anyway, I finally finished painting, at 3:30am this morning.

So I'm worn out, paint-spattered and sore, but I got 'er dun. Now I have to clean house and do laundry so I can return to work on Monday.

Now everything else looks old and yucky next to the painted walls. I suppose this will have a domino effect?

Happy weekend everybody. I need a nap.
