If walls could talk
It all started with me wanting to get the bathroom ready to paint on Saturday, my day off. I went down the basement to get my supplies so I could fix 4 small screw holes. Honstly I was so prepared you wouldn't believe it! Putty knife in hand I slowly started scraping and before I knew it I had gotten under the paint and "yikes" a whole sheet of paint the size of Wisconsin came off the wall with out any hesitation! I could'nt believe my eyes. It seemed so easy, I'll just peel off all the paint and have a clean slate to work with, The paint was coming off so easy! Like magic! And, I was wondering, what was keeping this paint on the wall in the first place? Well, I soon found out. Some of the paint did stick to the wall and it wasn't coming off nearly as easy. Now I was starting to get nervous, Brett is gonna think I'm such a dummy for trying to fix something that wasn't broken,how am I gonna get this all off before he gets home so he can see what a good job I can do all by myself? Hmm, I'm gonna have to call him and warn him....wait maybe a little more before I call.... "Brett, I broke the bathroom" I said. "Oh no, the toilet or the sink?" He said, in his >it's no big deal< voice."The walls" I said. He came home and assessed the situation and decided... (surprise surprise) "just keep peeling it all off and we will deal with it later"! So............thats what I did all the next day, peeled and scrapped peeled and scrapped until it felt like my arms were gonna fall off. Then, I said "I quit, I can't do it any more". I asked the painter guy to come look and see what he thought and he came back and said "Why didn't you stop"!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well...........I don't know why, and now I have a real mess on my hands. So,if walls could talk mine would say "ouch". Funny story, Huh? Not so much :(
