Painting again
Jul. 27th, 2008 04:42 pmI have officially started painting the bedroom. Well, when I say "painting" I have yet to apply any actual paint, per se. I haven't even washed the walls. I have, however, considerably thinned the amount of stuff in the bedroom, some of which has been there since previous renovation efforts required furniture shuffling. We also cleared furniture away from the first couple of walls to be painted, and vacuumed all over. This raised several generations of departed dust bunnies from the more obscure corners, and so we've had the windows open the air everything out. Feels good.
