We have had painters here every day for two weeks doing all the interior of our home We have lived with builder white on everything for five years so decided to get some color!

Ceilings, walls and baseboards so quite an undertaking and mess of taking everything out of each room and piles of stuff everywhere!

They let us keep the beds in the rooms and just kept them covered which was nice not to have them stacked against a wall.

We have a four-year-old neurotic, brain damaged poodle "Wild Bills Jesse James" aka chicken little who barks and runs and hides from people unless he is on the leash so I have been grounded and chained to this dog every weekday morning until DH comes home at noon.

Now the painters are done and we are getting furniture back in place and things back on the walls. This has been a real pain but now it's done it looks so nice. Walls are all dark beige and ceilings and baseboards are the brightest white we could find. Love the contrast and Jesse is so glad they are gone.

Monday the guys will be back to do the outside of the house which will bring on more barking. He is going to puppy camp (dog jail) in the mornings this time which is $8.00 a day but worth it as he will be calmer and so will I!
