The more things stay the same
So, another weekend went by, and we still have green walls. They are the color of mint chip ice cream without the chips. I am so tired of this color, and I was really excited to paint.
Mother nature had other plans. It was the coldest it's been all winter this weekend. If we paint, we have to vent out the house. The fumes aren't a big deal to Martin and I, but we'd like to preserve Chloe's brain cells, at least until she hits the first grade... Anyway, venting the house requires opening the windows. Below freezing temperatures would freeze our toes off, and would be too cold for the paint to dry.
So, we bagged it, and went out to breakfast, and to dinner, and shopping, and other assorted errands.
Better luck next time.
