Failure in Execution


Sometimes it doesn’t work out.  Sometimes being yesterday.  It being thtudnwmtb.  And no, you don’t get to say “I told you so!”  Sorry, maybe next time.  (However, if you come help me paint I will allow you to say “I told you so” and have it apply retroactively.)

I was painting thtudnwmtb.  I bought a sample can to try to match the gray in the kitchen. 

It didn’t. 

And I bought a “plastic roller for decorative finishes” to add a decorative painting finish.  

I didn’t.  (It might have worked for someone else who actually knows how to paint decoratively; but sadly, I do not.)

(I blame my father – after all I grew up in the house where I could paint my room any shade of Arizona White I wanted.)

After looking at the now splotchy (but not in a good way) kitchen walls and myself now covered in paint specks from the “plastic roller for decorative finishes” (I may not have created an attractive splotchy finish but found out I am incredibly efficient at spreading flecks of paint around) I decided just to repaint the kitchen.

I have decided to auction off the plastic paint roller for decorative finishes for charity.  I’m torn between Someone Needs to Take Me Out For Dinner or the I Need A House Cleaner charities.  (I’m torn because they both just do so much good!)

The trim on the outside was Navajo white. I'm not sure of the color on the inside. But I bought it in 5 gallon buckets.

I guess there was a reason for white.

Um, I'm thinking thtudnwmtb isn't a real house. I feel like I'm reading a Stephen King novel in installments.

At least it's only paint this time.
