Last night I dream I have a giant old house with very tall ceilings. The only work that needs to be done is color: I am painting, painting, painting. I mention to some one that the rooms will be done in three years. So much more to go, but the results make me happy. The hard work doesn’t affect my energy. I am strong. My skills get better and better.
I finish a room, choosing two related colors, light blue and light green (the actual plan for my upstairs bedroom). Chris says he prefers grey. I take a break and walk outside, along a long, narrow sidewalk that is next to the side of the house. The concrete is original. Even the simple bushes and flowers seem like they are unchanged from past decades.
Day notes:
I finished the downstairs bedroom last week and it is beautiful. Chris and I are very pleased. Tremendous work: three coats on the ceiling, doors, baseboards and windows. Two coats on the sky-blue walls. Spray-painted copper on all of the window hinges, locks and pulls. New solar shades, bedspread, pillows and a new ceiling light/fan. Early this week I started prepping the dining room, which will be a much easier project.
The big house in the dream reminds me of the message I sent a distant relative via Ancestry. I mentioned the huge, fancy house my great-grandparents owned in Worthington, where my grandmother Helen was born. It was torn down years ago and turned into a parking lot near a commercial building.
