Sunday's adventure in painting did not really go as anticipated. Because of a morning commitment I was not home until 1 in the after noon. I threw a couple chicken cordon bleu in the oven and went upstairs. The walls needed wiping down with a damp clothe because of all the sanding was done. I got the area wiped down and started painting the trim and borders, pewter candlestick on the ceiling and halfway down the walls. The timer went off, so I went downstairs, pulled out lunch, sat down with it in the recliner and had lunch. Friday I came down with the beginnings of a cold, by Sunday it was full bloom, I fell asleep in the chair. I woke up at around 6pm. The paint brush and the paint tray have united as one.
Even with all the washing of the plaster dust there were areas where the paint would not stick. Tonight (Monday) I will be back up there to repair areas that need repairing, finish the trimming and roll out the main area.
