Painting 101

What's My Bed Doing Way Over There? 

Our kitchen is all discombobulated.  My bed is in a different corner!  I keep barking at it hoping it will move back, but so far it's staying put.  Sarah came over today to get Linda started with the big painting project.  While she was gone teaching, Sarah got all the trim done in the foyer, up the stairs and in the kitchen.  Since Linda already moved everything off the walls, she is just leaving it that way since she is going to try to paint the kitchen herself on Sunday.  How hard could it be, right?  You dip your brush into the paint can then go back and forth until the color is all spread out.  Linda said it can't be any harder than putting on eyeliner, so she is going to take a stab at it.  If the kitchen turns out OK, she'll do the bathrooms next... then if she is really brave, she'll do the rest of the house.  The big problem is lack of time.  Her day is all broken up with classes (9:30, 12:00, 3:30, 4:30, 7:30) so it's hard to get a chunk of time to work on it.
