Ugh... Head will explode....Evil Migraine....

Spent yesterday finding hard surfaces to use for displaying our glorious goods for the garage sale. Took about three hours to arrange the items, and I'm still not finished!!! Probably another hour.

We have one room all prepped for painting. Spyros is excited because he will get to use the new paint sprayer when he gets home to paint the room.

Frugal/Simple Thought: Before painting make sure to prep the room. Fill in those holes and sand, wash the walls, cover outlets, take down trim, cover windows and light fixtures.

If you skip doing this you'll have to scrap paint off (which sucks), have dirt creeping out from under the paint (where you didn't wash), and have lots of holes because you didn't take the time to mud.

It sucks doing it, but saves time and money by not having to repaint so soon. Unless of course you have someone viciously attack your walls with a crayon or a hammer. Then the best bet: Sell your house and move into a freshly painted one!!! (Tongue in cheek.)
