The room is painted!!!

It was actually finished a couple of weekends ago, but I'm just getting around to posting about it. This is primarily due to my complete ineptitude with technology. Cheryl has to get the pictures off of the camera and onto the computer so that I can put them on this blog. I'm at her mercy - ain't that marriage though?

Anyway, Pete came over to help me paint. I was able to get a picture of him showing me his forearm. He's a little camera shy...

We had a fun day. I hooked up the laptop to the boombox and we got the 80's station on XM Radio. We spent the whole day playing the "name the singer" game. Only now, unlike the old days, we didn't have to wait for an annoying DJ to tell us who it was - it was right on the screen! I love XM Radio. It costs a bit, but man, it's so worth it! I listen in the car, at home, at work, everywhere! I've got the new age station pumping into my earphones as I'm typing this.

Painting. Pete works like I do - slow and careful. It was quite nice. We worked the whole day and all I fed the poor guy was a double-double. What is it about In-n-Out that goes so well with manual labor? Like when moving to a new place - nothing goes as good with a U-haul truck as a double-double - not animal-style, that's gross. Yes, I said it! Animal-style is gross! Thrrr!

But I digress. We painted the room. The color is hard to see in the pictures, but it looks like butter. We're trying to steer clear of the pink. I don't like the overly girly, pinky, flowery, nausiating stuff. I like funny and cute. Note the picture of Milton the Monkey. That's the wall art that goes with her room's theme - Jungle Babies. Friggin' cute!!!
So, there it is. the room's been painted. Pete was saying that we should do crown molding. Maybe this weekend if he's not busy. I think it could look nice, no?
