on terra firma
Oct. 28th, 2015 07:08 pmThree days of solid painting and I can barely lift my arms over my head.
It occurred to me at one point that although I have used primer tons of times, it was always to cover up somebody else's paint. This is my first time slapping it on the raw drywall. I can now say I understand
a) Why they sell it in those ginormous buckets
b) Why you would pay somebody else $1500 to not have to do this.
Anyway. Halfway done. Then we get to haul furniture some more.
