A long weekend.

Today my great friend Beverly came into town to help me with work on the house. Today's project was painting in the kitchen. So I went to lowes this morning and picked up the needed supplies *plus some extras which I will talk about later
This is our set up, got some big plastic covers for the floor, because we don't want to get paint on the brand new tile. We are painting both the ceiling and the walls.
This is my fancy before photo. I was trying to get both the walls and the ceiling. It doesnt look bad right? well, just wait till tomorrow when I can get some nice and bright photos of the after.
See the difference between the non-painted and the freshly painted white ceiling.
LOVE the brightness!
Here is Bev getting the wall painted. Look at the lovely yellow! its such a happy yellow. I did a happy dance as we started putting the paint up. Seriously I paused several times just to comment on how much I LOVED the color. I am sorry that I dont have after photos, but it was getting dark by the time we finished, and since Im a bit lazy Ive just been taking photos on my phone and not with an actual camera. You will for now, just have to take my word for it that the difference is so amazing.
This is Bev's fiance Dillon. He came over as we were finishing painting and installed the ceiling fan for me. It was hard, mostly because Dad took any working phillips screw drivers he had with him, and left only one with a bunch of screws sticking out of the handle.
Here is the last picture of the day. It doesnt show the paint and fan to its best. But Ill get more pictures later. Promise.
