Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, this has nothing to do with fitness, but it Could fall under the Health category if we are including Mental Health!!

Geeeeeze Louize..........why must everything be so difficult?

All I wanted to do was get rid of that stupid wall paper in the dining room - - it had little pink roses on a frosty pink background - - THis is NOT ME!!!. I've lived with it for 5 years now and that is enough.....WELL,, when they put it up,, they applied it Directly to the wall board without priming or anything....NOW, , I've got half the wall-board peeling off with the paper. Grrrrrrr. THEN, I "Thought" that the color I have in the kitchen . . which is quite Bold. . . would look good in the dining room. WRONG!! After scraping and priming the bottom part of the room I did a coat of the kitchen paint and YUCK YUCK.....BUT, , I would not admit that "I" could "DO" yuck so did a Second Coat (lolol) just to make SURE that I really didn't like it! NOw, I've got what in the dining room looks like "FLaming ORANGE" - - -it does, it looks like Burger King!(LOL) And because the wall is so shabby now from the paper removal, it looks like those flames are coming at ya!! It's a flaming Mess is what it is!! Grrrrr.

And the hub is NO HELP!! He's like - - do YOU like it?? WHatever YOU say!(lol) Come on - be real!! He just doesn't want to have to paint anymore.

So, now I just don't know what to do........I've primed OVER the Orange Flames and am kind of just waiting for the spirit to move me and select ANOTHER color. I DID paint the top part (Above what used to be the chair rail) a soft green but I wanted something BOLD so I'm not happy with that Either.

MESSAGE TO KIM: THINK TWICE ABOUT REMOVING WALLPAPER!(lol)

I have to wait now for the primer to dry AGAIN....so perhaps I'll come up with a better color scheme. . . . .

I think I'll just start looking for another house...this is too much trouble!(lol)

~~Have a wonderful paint-free day!(vbg)
