still painting

well, I have managed third (final!) coat on door and some architraves. Looks pretty jolly good I reckon. Door furniture is back on, whew- this means it is now safe to visit me if you like a closed bathroom door. Also it means robe hooks, hoorah! I find it unreasonably irritating not to have one of these when I need one.

Also this morning I have embarked on painting the other bathroom window. This is a "spend all day at home" job as I want three coats and can't close or lock the window while I am at it. It is also remarkable fiddly and half done up a ladder. Though I seem to finally be learning to cut in paint better, this counts as a very good thing.

So my revised list for the rest of today
- one, two more coats on the window
-install 2 new security window winders
-tidy kitchen- even managed to wash the floor!!
-move dresser to place in the newly painted corner
-install it's doors and start putting stuff on it
-rest enough that I can manage to finish this list. Apparently so

If I have excess energy - or to be done another time
-cut down 8 drawer knob screws to size. Then I can assemble the drawers I painted last weekend.
-paint bathroom walls except unfinished washing machine corner
-install loo paper holder- now this I am looking forward to, isn't my life exciting?
-install cupboards and luggage rack in bathroom

finishing the kitchen painting will be a later project.

Sawdust in silly places.

Yay for doingness. I finished my today list! Kitchen is reclaimed. Bathroom trim all pale cream now, lovely. I find it restful to the eye. New lockable window winders installed. One rather bodgily but functional. During this bodgy installation I had an amusing moment- needed to drill holes over my head- needed position was perfect for all the sawdust generated to fall straight into my cleavage. Not comfortable but pretty funny.

Still plenty more painting and suchlike to do but no more today. I sit here with tired arms trying to decide whether I like red wind spritzers.
