so close

yet, so far away.

We had planned on finishing the painting today. We got there at 7am. We worked hard and we worked all day. But we haven't finished the painting yet.

You may remember my post about the painting...

So, we ran out of paint. Those walls sucked in the paint like a sponge. And that was after two coats of primer. So we managed to get one coat of "Realistic Beige" on the walls, but that was literally all the paint. We went and picked up a quart, but by that time it was too late in the day to go back to paint (it was 4:30p).

In all we used:
ten gallons of primer
four gallons + a quart of Realistic Beige
two gallons + a quart of Web Gray
two gallons of Snowbound
one gallon of Mega Greige

We can't give you a number of how many square feet that covered. Bill had it figured out, but that piece of paper got thrown away once we bought the paint. Neither of us thought we would care. Yet, now I do. Why? I don't know.

Maybe because I'm too tired to blog about anything else. I can't possibly come up with something clever and new to write about. This is what I've been living and breathing for the last two weeks. Again, it could be the paint fumes. Don't worry, after an hour or so worth of work tomorrow, we'll never speak of this again.
