Afternoon.
Feeling much better today. Which of course makes me want to do all the things I haven't been able to do in days. And umm freely admit I've been painting trim on the outside of the house. (blushes)
Its latex and "safe". And yup I've been up on a ladder a bit. But not high up. And I know after all my venting about being tired its goofy to do.
But ya'know some days ya just got to push out and do something regardless.
And I love to paint and our trim needs it BAAAAAAADLY! And Rob HAAAAAAATES it.
Only did it for about twenty minutes. And will do twenty more later. I figured that wasn't over doing it. And it WILL get the trim done eventually. Managed to do the door and one window that way. Will do the second coat of those after cyberchase is over.
That leaves one more easy access window to do. And some that my mother is saying I absolutely shouldn't touch. She's probably right. But I don't listen well to my mother. *giggles* We'll see how it goes.
And whether my body doesn't kill me for what I've done to it so far.
Of course I walked away from the paint for a minute and Rainee "painted" while I was gone. So had to clean up that mess. I knew better too...although typically its SAM that plays in the paint.
I hadn't realized how badly the paint had faded until I put the first bit up. And their rather like two different colors. (EWWWW) So it will make things look MUCH better.
On the kid front.
They LOVE the new sandbox. And are spending hours in it.
Yesterday the girls collected rocks that looked like eggs (in their opinion
and made egg houses. They were rather elaborate. And I was forced to listen to a ten minute description of them. Oh yes, but the mommy egg was dead. It got eaten by a dinosaur and they buried it. According to Zeria.
That reassured me lots.
Rainee is finally cutting her eye teeth. All 4 in one week. We may or may not survive her doing this. Oh my whiney!
And its beautiful today. And my lawn chair is calling me. Or the paint.
Lawn chair? paint? Lawn chair? paint? Decisions, Decisions......

:goodjob: LOL! Don't listen to those "stuporstitious" people who tell ya not to put your hands over your head while preggers... I hung wallpaper (and all kinds of taboo things.) Just don't overexert, but you know that! (FYI, I love to paint too, but I gettin' old, LOL!) Wishing you the best on getting the painting done and feelin' better. :heartbeat:
4 teeh in ONE WEEK?!?! Fuuuuun:eek:
LOL! **casting my vote for LAWN CHAIR!**
