Yuppers. That's the forecast for tomorrow. Ed (the painter), called this morning and said it'll be Tuesday... or maybe Wednesday... depending on the weather. We're getting close enough to Tour Day that I am getting nervous. Did a little painting of my own just to feel like I was making some progress. I know he'll get done in one day what it would take me like, a month, but still...
See, I painted the window...
So, I did some more pruning, raking, trimming back vegetation so that when Ed does arrive, he can whiz through like a painting dervish.
Here you can see where I pruned back the bougainvillea so Ed can get to the soffit and the trim. I can't believe that Mom thinks all those wires and power boxes and stuff look tacky. I mean, what's not to love? Ha ha. Just kidding, Mom. I'm gonna remove some of the more unsightly wires before tour.
If it's truly raining tomorrow, I will focus on the inside and maybe do some painting in the garage (on stuff like the mailbox for the garden tools - not the actual garage).
i am an earth and environmental scientist living and loving in the southwestern desert. i share my space with my geologist spouse, two felines, desert tortoises, and some very tiny fish.
