They hide dirt *and* paint splatters.<BR/><BR/>NO. No, there is nothing here in New London for us to paint, Jane Z. Mistah Schleckah is very, very happy about this. Actually, come spring (year, right, <I>as if</I> it will ever arrive) we'll go back outside and redo the deck floor, and tackle the front porch. Bill's good at painting, but he hates it. <BR/><BR/>Speaking of which, Imperatrix: Rollers. Only rollers. Heavy coats, and lots of them. See Mistah Schleckah being a painting genius, above.<BR/><BR/>Beth: When in San Diego? I don't know. Cpt'n Dumbass: you're on. At least for the beer.<BR/><BR/>And Jacquie? Puh-<I>lease.</I> Perks? The <I>perk</I> is being my sibling. People all over the <I>world</I> wish they could be my sibling. Consider yourself duly blessed and honored. And if you had trim on your person, I would paint it.<BR/><BR/>EllieMe, You, or Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13159195620327366257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146073139129271180.post-9397352353794483572009-03-03T08:45:00.000-08:002009-03-03T08:45:00.000-08:00Wow!

I love the idea of painting, but I hate doing it (I've only rollered it on -- a thicker coat is better, yeah?). And trim is SO not my friend.Imperatrixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11748228447190366632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146073139129271180.post-53061376544664607532009-03-02T20:29:00.000-08:002009-03-02T20:29:00.000-08:00Chameleon rules!
