what a weekend. the first weekend this year that i didn't have a meeting or some kind of activity on the schedule. i saved all day saturday for me and it felt wonderful.
worked a little on my bedroom decorating project. it's not enough to be called "re-decorating", but still - quite a bit of work. so last week i bought 52 of the dirt-cheap picture frames from JoAnn's (too bad they only had black), and two cans of white spray primer and two cans of white spray paint. saturday afternoon, matt let me encroach on his man-space (the garage) to paint my frames. it was definitely a couple-hour project, and i'm not done yet. i laid in bed saturday night, unable to sleep because the tendons in my wrists were throbbing, and today, i have no grip strength. between coats, i patched miscellaneous holes in the drywall of both our bedroom and dining room. can't wait to get those puppies painted - they've been there since we moved in nearly three years ago.
so, the photos for the frames are en route to my mailbox. next, i get to windex 52 little glass plates and fill my 52 frames with my 52 photos, and then i get to measure 52 times and pound 52 holes. in all my anal planning about how many photos, frames and dollars this project would require, you'd think i'd have stopped to consider how much work this would entail!
still have to work through curtains, and figure out what to do about my non-white furniture (in a room of white trim...)
