Til Death Do Us Part

Man, sometimes that feels like a long time! I haven't been feeling good all weekend, but with the nice weather thought that Kendall and I should really get the garage painted. The city cited us on it and we knew it was a sore spot for buyers and we're running out of time.

So I've been working my butt off out there in the hot sun all the while still feeling slightly nauseous. Only taking short brakes and then getting right back to work. Kendall spills an ENTIRE can of paint into the landscaping and I turn and say, "Oh Kendall!" Now I didn't scream at him. I don't think I even sounded mad, just frustrated, and he starts going off on me! In front of the neighbor no less! So I say screw it and close up my can of paint and walk in the house.

Now I'm sitting here in the nice cool house watching him clean up his mess. *smirk* I'll bet "til death" is feeling like a long time for him too!


Several Hours Later: I did go back out and paint again. I just wanted to get it done and I didn't really feel like having to revive my husband from the heat. When his can ran out of paint, I told him he should have thought about that before he dumped his all over the lawn. (He smiled.) The best part was that we ran out of paint with only a little bit left...and we both know it's his fault...we're just not saying anything. *smirk*

yeah, that sounds frustrating. I hope it was in the grass and not on your pavement where it'll be a worse eye sore!

Could you wash it off with the hose or is it still there? If it is still there, I hope its a pretty color!!

WOW. Sounds like a bit of a rough weekend. Glad to hear that everything went well. Also very glad to hear that your pup's eyes have cleared up and the docs have figured out what's wrong.

I couldn't help but smile when I read the second part of you post... the several hours later bit... men always know it's (always) their fault!
