The Sunday Painter (Oct 2-5, 2005)

Sunday, Oct. 2:

Two weeks ago, Matt said he was going to paint the house, then last week he was not going to paint the house.

This morning he said "I'm going to paint the house today."

Since it was already nearly noon, I said things like, "Why don't you clean off all the cobwebs today, then paint tomorrow." It would have taken me a day just to do the cobweb cleanup. Not Matt.

I went outside to clear plants & bricks that were in the way (and in danger of being painted). I removed the mailbox and put tape over the house numbers. Then trimmed plants that were in the way.

By 1 pm, Matt was painting. I think he stopped at 5. He'd painted the south side and the front. ...And a ladder to use up the extra paint in the bucket.
