Bathroom number one is now painted white. It looks nice. Clean. Better than before. It took FOUR damn days to scrape all of the wallpaper off, sand down the extra glue, and spackle and sand the chunks of wall that the previous baboons had managed to gouge out. It took 3 coats of semi-gloss to make it look acceptable. The people who put up that hideous pink and white wallpaper had done so right over the drywall. That's right, DIRECTLY APPLIED TO THE DRYWALL. Baboons.
Ana loaned me her paint gun. A syringe-type thing with a roller at one end. It was too complex for my over taxed, PMS-addled brain to figure out, so I used the regular roller.
Today, however, I managed to unravel the secret of the paint gun (seal not tight enough before) and I just finished painting bedroom #3. Palest blue. One accent wall (mostly the closet) slightly bluer. Looks good. I don't want to get to excited, but this is going well.
I just hope it pays off. I want to have my first open house soon, I want out. Now.
