Painted!

Last week Monday I asked Ron to pull out the washer and dryer so I could sand behind it and paint the walls. He pulled them out before I got going in the morning, and finished it all in about 45 minutes! I would have taken me about 2 - 3 days because I can only do it for a short time. He didn't sand it as perfectly as I have been doing, but he asked if I was going to paint it right away, so I ran out to get the paint, washed the walls down and got the painting done, both coats, in that small section. Then he could move the w/d back in. I found out I was sanding waaaay more than I needed to, and the paint covered a lot of flaws. Today I painted the other 3 walls. I will probably be worthless for the rest of the week, but that's a big job done. Now on to the half bath. I have that about 1/2 sanded, but you can bet your booties that I'm not going to be so persnickety!

Also, I bought a second gallon of paint because I was sure I was going to run out today. I have just about 1/2 cup of paint left. Good for touchups. Oh, I have to paint the register yet, too. I think there will be enough for that. Now I sit with an extra gallon. I'm hoping they can retint it a little darker. I'm not real fussy, but I just want it a little different color. I have some picture where you can see both the old paint job and the new.
