I have a confession to make.
I am getting in a spring purging mood. As in I want to throw out all my furniture and buy NEW. As in I want to clean out every closet and rid myself of everything in them. I want all NEW clothes. I want to go to a homeschooling convention and buy all NEW curriculum. I want to empty the freezer of everything and fill it with NEW veggies from the yet-to-be-planted garden. But, common sense (and the banking account) will prevail and I won't be doing that.
But there is something I can do. I can paint.
I want to paint. I need to paint. It is "in me" and must be done. Something about picking out a new color feels like "starting over."
This morning I was looking at the walls in our living room and thought, "This room needs painting." And ladies, once I have that thought I cannot get it out of my head. It is there and will stay there until I have moved all the furniture, covered the floors, and painted all night long. Yes, that's what I do. I stay up all night after the kids are in the bed and paint.
I will be looking at the ole calendar later today to pick a painting day and it will be done. Or I might just go completely loopy.

Your not alone in the Spring fever area. I got that "bug" too...lol!
ReplyDeleteEspecially knowing we'll be moving in month and a half. I just want to go through and throw everything out. I'm so tired of looking at the clutter. haha
Painting does help give the room a make over without changing anything else. So I say go for it!
Be blessed!
This is good timing; I NEED someone to paint for me lol.
ReplyDeleteI love this time of year when we are in the mood to spruce things up. Spring is SO invigorating!
Happy Projects,
