Bring on the paint

The guys finished up the drywall for our second floor construction project on Monday and we’ve been in painting mode ever since.  After working all day, we come home, change into our painting clothes and get to work…

Don’t worry, we’re using zero VOC primer and paint, so it is safe for me and my expanding stomach to help.  The one who isn’t allowed to help is Frankie.  He is relegated to the construction line in the hallway so that we can avoid the inevitable little black hairs in the white paint.

So while we’re painting, Frankie is waiting…

You might wonder why we are rushing through the painting at night.  Well, as it turns out, Chris becomes a speed demon when it comes to managing a construction project.  He wants this whole project done yesterday.  As a result, he scheduled carpet installation for September 7, which doesn’t sound too bad except for the fact that we have plans for the two weekends preceding that date!  So night time painting it is for us.

And now that the priming is done, we’ll be spending our Friday night with some color and more 80s music blasting.  I know you’re jealous.

What projects are you working on this weekend?
