That was the biggest chore for me. (Painting ceilings is quite the challenge as well.) A good chiseled brush for cutting the edges makes a huge difference.<BR/><BR/>Maybe when your done you can give the laptop a coat, just for payback!<BR/><BR/>DonDonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17070578562535678950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5684277511053973833.post-20136317228590933662009-03-04T22:45:00.000+00:002009-03-04T22:45:00.000+00:00Did I not ask you how it was going in an email a c...Did I not ask you how it was going in an email a couple of days ago?<BR/><BR/>I assume you were too busy painting to reply!<BR/><BR/>If it's any consolation we just moved the bedroom furniture round for the 4th time this year (and it's not over yet!)Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624194722106155800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5684277511053973833.post-40320064351016416702009-03-04T19:04:00.000+00:002009-03-04T19:04:00.000+00:00hahaha and HEY...How come she gets to call you Sir...hahaha and HEY...How come she gets to call you Sir? I see how it is, now ;o). I suppose I should have asked how the painting was coming along.<BR/><BR/>So...that is ALOT of painting! I could see how you managed to close yourself in...totally (sounds like something I might have done once).<BR/><BR/>ALSO - Those lifelines? Yup..me too ;o) although, I can't say that I noticed them until you pointed them out to me.<BR/><BR/>One more thing...I will take your laptop off of your hands.<BR/><BR/>Okay..I'm done being sassy now.<BR/><BR/>Beautiful and marvelous day to you.<BR/><BR/>Now, how are your joints feeling with all of that painting? I know that I get pretty stiffened and aching with the little I've done...I hope you're taking care while doing all of this ;o).Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04693495698843336789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5684277511053973833.post-87559346875424333302009-03-04T18:54:00.000+00:002009-03-04T18:54:00.000+00:00I glad to hear someone is making progress.

How long until Jo heard that you were locked up?<BR/>Can't wait to see pictures!<BR/>My laptop has a very strange keyboard. On the right hand side, the shift key is small like the rest of the keys. On the left, the shift key is a long key, like it should be. Well, I can be typing away and if I go to use the right side shift and don't hit it exactly right, the curser will jump to some other paragraph and I'll just be typing away not realizing what it's done. Very frustrating!shabby girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03991126161405336712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5684277511053973833.post-58305098338903050912009-03-04T18:18:00.000+00:002009-03-04T18:18:00.000+00:00I think I may have done Crawford Mansions in my sl...I think I may have done Crawford Mansions in my sleep last night - I dreamed of this enormous place with dozens of rooms; all needing painting. At least, I think it was a nightmare - I'm too confused to be sure.Scriptor Senexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17795521284516432520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5684277511053973833.post-83189894149841658852009-03-04T17:59:00.000+00:002009-03-04T17:59:00.000+00:00Sir, I hope you know I was being cheeky, and did n...Sir, I hope you know I was being cheeky, and did not doubt for one moment that you were not en garde in the study, feverishly painting!<BR/><BR/>I am pleased you have made such progress - When you are finished, Crawford Mansions could do with a coat inside and out?!<BR/><BR/>Have you ever seen the fabulously funny Cary Grant film, Mr Blandings Builds His Dream Home, or House, not sure which? It is wonderful, and your witty incident with the door and the pliers, calling for help, actually appears in it several times! You must try to see it once you have recovered from your work - You are so right, it will all be worth it when you can sit back and regard proudly the fruit of your labours.
