Painting Fever

I have it.  

I caught it from all the paint fumes.

Because I have been doing a lot of it!

Not this kind:


This kind:



And this is what I have been painting:

a bathroom door and facings (both sides)

a claw-footed tub (on the outside)

risers (22 of them!) and moldings on the staircase

door and facings to the laundry room




Our house turns 100 this year.  

We have lived here for 16 years this fall.

To keep things simpler, all our doors, facings, and moldings are white--the same white.

I once counted all the doors, but I forgot how many there were.

I'd be embarrassed to say.

But every now and then, one of them gets a touch up,
because there is always one--  four-- plenty that needs it.

Your home is beautiful! I love the veranda all around like that! The archway and colums are so pretty, too.

Where DO you get your energy?? Wish I had it.

I love to paint the house! Painting the house is one of my most enjoyable hobbies. Your house is beautiful! If I had been trying to imagine your adult house as a child, I would have imagined one just like this one! I love a house with a porch.

So sorry to hear about your mother-in-law passing. My thoughts are with you and your husband at this sad time.
