The first couple weeks of solitary confinement went by quickly. I had puzzles to keep me occupied and I was enjoying the slower pace. But then...I started to think about things I could do around the house. One big project that was on my "hire someone" list was the painting of my bedroom. Because it's a big room and there is lots and lots of wood trim that has never been painted, it was more than I wanted to take on. But as the days went by, it was obvious I would not be having a painter in my house anytime soon. At first I told myself I would just do the doors so I could see how I liked the color. Then when the pandemic is no longer a threat, I would hire a painter to do the walls and the windows. Before I go any further, let me show you the room. North wall: Door on the left is the entrance to the bedroom from the hallway. East wall: Notice the two radiators under the windows. Behind the radiators there are wood panels from the sill to the floor.
