    I hate painting

    I finally painted the frames for the plantation shutters I've been working on forever it seems. Built myself a spray area out of plastic sheets and was ready to go.
    Tyvek coveralls - check
    Respirator - check
    Goggles - check
    Gloves - check
    HVLP sprayer filled and ready - check

    It took about 30 minutes to spray them, it probably took longer to do the cleanup. Then i walked into the house where LOML looked at me, went ummm, ahhhh, and burst out laughing. Finally she looked at me and stated...you forgot to put the hood up. My hair which has been slowly turning gray as the boys got older was a nicely frosted sticky oil based enamel gloss white. Yes, it took a while to get it cleaned up.

    I hate painting too. But that's funny.
