Painting

Upstairs paint

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.
