Darkroom Day 18 & 19


Yesterday I didn't have to primer the art room as my husband brought out the big guns: the airless sprayer! So he was the one who got all decked out in the white suit, knit hat with the opening for the nose and eyes, booties -- and knocked that baby out in less than 2 hours! And I didn't have to get all messed up! I love it! Of course, I was pulling weeds out in the garden - but that was good 'medicine' for me; gave me time to put to rest some of my sadness about my Mom. I love gardening (that has to be second in the lineup of hobbies for me) and I got it from her I'm sure. She loved to garden and even had a rose garden when we lived in Barstow. The roses survived out there, I know it seems unbelievable, but they did.

Now today, Ron and Gary painted the outside walls of the art room in Pewter - and it looks really cool. The inside was still not completely dry to start painting, so they started on the cabinets and shelving! This room is going to be awesome. It's surreal that this is actually coming about for me - and my husband. He's all happy 'cause now he's back in his construction element. And if he's happy, then I'm happy!
