The Happiest Little Painter Alive Today
Thursday, September 13, 2012
If you are waiting to hear from me, this is what's keeping me away from my usual duties this week:
I am painting the entire interior of our new condo.
Don't judge the colours by what you see on my hands there. That's tinted primer. I'm a little freaked out about how our place is shaping up to look like the guts of a giant, inside out birthday cake, but I'm keeping the faith until the actual paint sets.
I'm trying to get all the painting done before Sunday when we move all our stuff in, and I feel like I should have trained for this. I knocked my left kneecap out with the ladder yesterday, and my right side is telling me that it wants muscle relaxants and a hot bath.
If you see someone hobbling down the street in a Homestar Runner t-shirt who looks like a children's birthday party threw up on her, that's me, the happiest little painter alive today.

It's so much fun seeing your space come together. :)
I am so excited for you guys!
I'm excited to see the result!
So excited to see the results! Congratulations again!
I love a freshly painted room. It feels so clean and new.
This is just so darn cute.
Ha. You mentioned Homestar Runner and I immediately see you in your condo painting all by yourself and declaring, "I can make it on my own!" I don't envy you - I painted one bedroom with two other people and decided I didn't wanna do that again for at least another year. Good luck!
As Homestar would say... "sur or madam, do you reqwuire medicoal assistance???"
Paint that blank canvas, Leonarda, paint!
Love it xx
You primed? Damn y'all are fancy.
Hey no pressure, but when you are done and not exhausted and it's convenient, can you take pics and show us?
Thanks!
This picture just makes me happy. :) Congratulations!! When we bought our old, run-down, century-old house, I can't even explain how exciting it was! I kind of wanted to knock down a wall just because I could! LOL
