Return to StillWaterRunsDeep's blog

the power of one

it amazes me how much I have accomplished by myself...I've removed wallpaper, scrubbed paste, primed and painted two baths (one twice), a kitchen and two bedrooms with an $8 step stool from WalMart, and gallons of paint from my best friend Ben Moore...and lastly I'm waiting for the patching to dry around the casing of my kitchen windows (why would someone wallpaper there??) so I can dip my brush, for the last time, into a can of Dove White, and let this 600 pound gorilla off my back.... What next? Listing for sale. There's no such thing as working this hard and enjoying the result (a metaphor for my life?)...I've promised KCB a home where we can hear the birdies and tree frogs, and have a yard to plant flowers and enjoy God's beauty. But will I have to pay the price yet again, painting and patching and always thinking "I need to get this done"? There are always options, I've learned, and the time has arrived to explore mine...
