• 3rd (and final) Thursday Entry

  I’m calling it a day – whether it is or not!

  This is probably the sloppiest job I’ve ever done . . . but you get what you get.  It’s not a horrible job, and I’ve seen many who do a much worse job than this.  The truth is:  I really don’t care. 

  I’m done!!!
  

  I was worried, when I came back to finish the top of the window and the “easy wall” to the left, the one that only has an outlet to paint around, that I wouldn’t be able to do it. 

  I felt like I wanted to quit – so bad!  And, really considered quitting.
  

  I sucked up the last bit of energy I possessed and persevered!
  

  I guess it really DOES look light green and not so whitish.  I think Judy was right.  I’d looked at it so long, it was all a blur!
  

  Even if it doesn’t look “green” . . .
  
  I’m going to call it “GREEN” and call it “A DAY!”

  I’m ready to clean up (at least my body was protected today!!!!  just my hands and lower arms took a beating!) and then I have to become creative with ground beef for dinner.  It’s almost 6pm, so I better get my creativity going fast!  I had also told Jesse I would get his checks ready to be deposited tomorrow.  I may have to do that tomorrow morning.  There isn’t much strength or brain cells left in poor ol’ worn out me right now.  Surely there is a box of Rice a Roni in my pantry I can add ground beef to!

  I used only one can of the light green paint.  I’m sure, tomorrow, we’ll see little spots that need to be touched up or gone over with a second coat.  Probably, if I’d put on my glasses, I’d see those spots now.  But, I really don’t want to know!!!

  Thanks for taking me through this project and pushing me.  I needed a cheer leading squad for this one!!!

  I’d have Rissy take a picture of me right now, but I’m pretty pathetic and beaten up looking!!!
