- My husband Steve is out of town through Saturday and I have torn the entire house apart in his absence in order to repaint my studio, move Wes into Christer’s old room, and take over Wes’s room as a sewing studio.
- It has occurred to me more than once that Steve would be horrified at my wall-painting techniques.
- Spider webs, tape, dirt and the like are simply painted over.
- If I fuss it will never get done.
- I bet you are horrified as well.
- Hey! I have limited time….
- …. and patience.
- I promise that there are no spiderwebs (or spiders) in any of my paintings.
- Have a great day! (And don’t fuss so!!)

Sounds like thats the way everyone should paint their rooms and it wouldnt be such a daunting task…I read your post on depression, I to have suffered from depression only for a couple of years, some tragic things happened in my life and I just couldnt get over it. I take medication and also just the other day, said to my husband, I feel almost like my old self again…

I love that! I think it’s an Urban Legend that the paint will peel off if you don’t wash the walls.

“Spider webs, tape, dirt and the like are simply painted over.” RIGHT ON, Carla! This is exactly how I’d paint too, if I were allowed to paint. which I’m not, because my husband knows this is how I’d paint!
Hope you’re warmer today. Enjoy those nice clean walls!
