How I Spent My Afternoon…..

….. or, How To Make More Work For Yourself Thru The Mega OOOPS!  Or, better yet…..Whose Bright Idea Was This Anyway?!?! Shaddup Ick!

You might have noticed I’ve been a doing (with a lot of the biggest jobs being done by Ick, and the Mr did the majority of the carpentry….which you’ll see once we get the door up) a bit of ‘remodeling’ the last couple of weeks (started about six months ago).

So, I had this bright idea to paint the recessed part of the doors.  Sounds simple enough, right?  WRONG!  I had only intended to do the one part, and through the major oops, said the heck with it, and decided to save myself some aggrevation.  Pfft!  Not the brightest idea I’ve ever had.  But, even though they need another coat, or three, they’re coming out ok.  I still have to do some detail around the edges, but that’s for AFTER it dries.

Also, if you decide to do something goofy like this, make sure you put something down to cover the floor. Yeah yeah….I thought I’d be SO careful! ROFLMAO! Sorry hunny….we have a yellow spot on the carpet now. :?
