There Is A Conspiracy To Keep Me From Painting My House...AND I'VE HAD IT!!!

[Thunk]

And EVERYBODY is in on it! Friends, Family, Neighbors, Even the Jahova wittnesses are in on it...EVEN KITTY!

Every time I get ready to paint & have all things in place...somebody calls or "drops by" unannounced. But I'm on to these bastards! They don't thunk I know what they're doing...but I know!

They're trying to stop me from painting my house and I'VE HAD ENOUGH OF IT!

This has been going on all summer but this morning was just another example.

I had everything set up to start painting early...I'm just about to go out to stir the paint and Kitty decides she NEEDS luvinz right there and then!

OK...so I give her some luvinz...tell her how good she is and how pretty she is...and I'm out the door. I get the paint stirred & poured into the tray...I get into position and actually start painting and hear a horn honking.

It's 8 am on a friggan saturday morning...who the hell is honking? It's my brother-in-law and he wants to kill an hour or so with small talk.

I said "hi" and then stopped responding to him...Just kept painting. He talked for a while but figured out I would say no more & he left.

After that I heard my phone ringing a few times and the doorbell rang atleast once.

Glad I chained the fence gate closed or they would have infiltrated my back yard at stopped me for sure!

The bastards!

 

[Thunk]

When I see somebody mowing their yard or plowing their snow or painting their house...I DON'T BOTHER THEM!

WTF is with people? Don't they have eyes?

 

[Thunk]

Not to mention...paint goes bad after not too long. It starts drying and gets too thick to use.

And I'm running out of summer. HEYYYY...great time to come & bother me at 8 friggan am on a saturday morning!

 

[occupied]

Hand them a brush if they want to talk to you.

Just tell them "Hey, you came over to help me paint my house? How nice of you!"

Then hand them a brush or a roller, sit back on a lawn chair, sip a beer, and supervise.

I spent over $5000 to make sure I didn't have to paint my house again.
All my windows have been replaced with steel double-pane gas-filled windows....and all of the eaves are permanent siding. The rest of the house is brick.
I just replaced my back door which is connected to my new covered back deck. I have to stain my deck pretty soon, but that's not like painting the house, which I used to have to do every other year.

 

[mudwhistle]

Did you pick some crazy paint color?

Pink is a popular color these days.

 

[Rambunctious]

Call a painting contractor and be done with it....

 

[Thunk]

Hand them a brush if they want to talk to you.

I tried that with Kitty...she would have no part of it.

 

[Thunk]

Did you pick some crazy paint color?

Yup...flat white.

 

[Thunk]

I have to stain my deck pretty soon,

I did that earlier this year. Use Thompsons water seal. 8 years for deck floors...15 years for siding.

 

[Thunk]

After 9.5 thousand in tree removal and 15 grand in medical bills...I'll paint it myself!

That is why our shutters are faded out. I refuse to pain them as long as the old man across the road is still alive. Last time I did he literally stood there the entire time telling me all the colors they have been before and debating "what exactly is that color you are using"

 

[Thunk]

I had the exact same neighbor...his name was bud larson.

But bud is dead now...so I'm painting

I have to sand everything first before I seal it. Wax on...Wax off.

That's what I've been doing with the walls of my house. Wondered why I was developing another cough until I realized it was all the friggan dust I was inhaling.
