the walls and hallway ceiling got me. lucky the fates recently connected me with a wonderful young family - of which one member is a professional house painter.
he started on the high open-beam ceilings today. and will be done tomorrow. a job that would have taken me the next couple of weeks.
{note to self: karma}
so for tonight our home is shrouded in drop-cloths. and dinner had to be out. (the girls were thrilled by the novelty!)
