A crisp, cold morning here today. Monday, the start of a new week of discovery and accomplishment. It is supposed to warm up to the mid-twenties today, we'll have to see about that. It's okay though, I've got a kind of fun job to do.
This is the masking tape I had to apply to the baseboards before doing anymore paint rolling on the walls. The way the varnish had gone up on the walls a little, made the paint flow down on top of the wood making a bigger mess. After painting one wall, carefully even, I had to find a better way, so tried the tape. It is a bit fussy removing the tape and a little fancy knife work is required, but it will look much better than runs of paint.
It will probably take longer than I expect, but with the cold outside, it will be a good day to do it.
I keep telling myself and Scooter, that this is the time to get these jobs done, so that when the weather warms up and Spring is here, we can have more time having fun outside. Does he understand? I think so.... he seems so contented and loves watching me work around the house. Such a great companion and listener, he helps by making me feel not so crazy as I talk out loud, I can always feel as though I'm directing my thoughts toward him too.
I'll post more later as the day warms and I see what else may happen here in Brainerd today.
And until I do.... Peace!
