Yes, it is raining again. I should be painting right now, but I just wanted to sit and do nothing when I got home from work. Work was interesting today. We had a gas leak this morning and had to evacuate the plant. Luckily the break room and lobby weren't affected so the group that I work with hung out in the lobby and had breakfast. The only down side is that I was at work a little later than I would have liked trying to catch up. 
Our hall project is taking longer than we intended, but it is getting there. Tonight we will put the last coat of paint on the doors and trim. Hopefully, we can get the walls painted tomorrow and then hang the new doors. We are making another trip to the home improvement store tonight for door hardware. Our next project will be the kids bath. It is going to be a big project. It started simply enough. We were just going to removed the wall paper, paint, and install tile floors. Somehow that has evolved to include a new vanity with sink and tile top. In addition, we are planning to tear out the walls around the tub to the studs and make it tile. It will be nice once it is done, but the chaos until then may drive me crazy. 
John and Oscar made quite a mess in the kitchen tonight. John thought it would be funny to spray Oscar. Oscar kept trying to attack the water. We are easily entertained.
John got the thermostat installed in the family room. After that we took a break from projects. I spent some time cleaning. 
The cat was having way too much fun playing on top the chairs. I had put them on top the table so I could mop the floor. She kept getting on them so she could hit at the chains on the fan. 
Once the house was clean, the boys spent some time playing rock band. I don't even try. I was not blessed with rhythm.
Oops! I am really not sure why the previous owners installed it indoors, but there are lots of things about this house that perplex me. John is going to install it in the garage instead.
Now we have a lovely blue spot on our wall. I have a hard time picturing what the family room must have looked like at one time. I am really glad they decided to paint the walls before listing the house. Anyway, John patched the holes and now we are waiting for it to dry. The hole where the gas line was is pretty big, so it will probably take several applications of patch before it is ready to paint. Luckily, there is some left over paint in the garage that matches the room. I really don't want to have to paint the entire room in the next couple of weeks.
Anyway, when John pulled the old thermostat off the wall he discovered some lovely wallpaper with records on it. 
Upon further inspection, I realized that they had painted over the wallpaper. 
In addition, there is a border around the top that was also painted over. Why would anyone paint over wallpaper. I don't get it. Needless to say the project list for that room is growing.
