A Good Tired

The old paint! And now the new:

I spent the day outside ( a miracle in itself ) painting my front door and the shutters on the front of our home. We have been in this home for 15 plus years and its time for some upgrades. Of course on a budget that can sometimes be an obstacle. Last year we painted the bathroom upstairs and at the same time I brought paint for the upstairs hall and the front door. I am just getting to it now (LOL). We also power washed the front of the house, the walkway and the brick stairs (man, what a difference that made)! Now I am in bed after a long hot shower and every muscle and bone in my body hurts (down to my toes). My hands even ache ( I'm thinking that is from holding the power wash). I still have to paint the garage and touch up the white trim in a couple of places but I am so glad we got this done. Marc even barbecued in between all of the other stuff we did and my Aunt and Uncle came by to see the progress. We set on the front porch...in the new chairs and ate hamburgers and chips. I told my aunt I am thinking about finding a bistro table for the space (Marc and I could sit out there in the morning drinking our coffee and tea). I honestly believe that must have smelled the food from home (LOL). It should be interesting to see what kind of condition I am in for Sunday morning service. Not sure I will have the high heel shoes on tomorrow. I will post pictures tomorrow evening ( there was just no way I was going to allow pictures of me with a rag on my head, flip flops and ashy feet.....make note to self to get a pedicure asap) !
