Not really, but it’s always a messy proposition. The great room of the house and entry have needed a fresh coat since we moved in, oh, nine years ago. And when the chum was on the way it got put off. Now the chum is three and a half and past the wild, food-flinging while learning to eat stage.

There was plenty of sheetrock patching, what with close to two dozen popped nails to repair, and some bad sheet rock in one corner to repair. Cleaned paint from hinges and light fixtures from prior owners paint jobs as well. I hate lazy paint jobs like that, but never saw any reason to take the time to clean up that mess till now.

The walls are painted: Suntan yellow for the living/dining room, Rhubarb for the entry, and Cottontail for the trim.

The foyer is almost completed. There is trim around the door to hang. The great room walls are painted, and I’ve stared painting the trim. That’ll be followed by the bookcases. Soon, soon it will be complete.
