Words of Advice

If, dear reader, you ever have an inclination to do some "touch-up" painting on a few spots in any room of your living space, be it a house, an apartment, or a classy card-board box in an alley, you will find that by providing clean paint in the dirty spot, that every so-so place adjacent to the formerly filthy place will by default become the new dirty spot, and immediately beg to be similarly painted.

Such is the case to us today.  I purchased a quart of paint in the proper color to touch up a short length of hallway adjacent to the living room.  Should have been plenty.  But when that area was painted, Pam decided that we just had to touch up one more space.... and then one more....  you get the idea.

Needless to say, a quart is no longer enough.  I'm heading out the door to get a gallon more.  Much more than we need, but there's always touch up to do somewhere.
