We have been having a crazy cold never ending winter this year.  We had yet another snow day for the kids yesterday.  Maddie entertained herself while I put in a couple of hours at work unexpectedly.   I dropped in to buy some paint for my newest job (more about that later) , and found my boss working by himself because the others were either late or having trouble driving in.  Once back home I actually excercised and had a shower while Maddie helped her friend babysit for the neighbour.  They brought the sweet thing over for a visit with me.  Personally I think they were at their limit and needed a little back-up.  Pushing the baby stroller up our hill in the snow and ice kinda knocked the life from them.  They collapsed on the sofa while I made silly noises at Inez to make her smile. 

I’ve started painting and decorating a customer’s kitchen.  I’ve done her living room and dining room a couple of years ago and now she is ready to update her kitchen.   She has a century old farmhouse that is really lovely.  It will soon be a little lovelier, I hope.  I will post before pictures soon, if I can remember to bring my camera next time.  I have removed some of her cupboard doors to paint them here at home.  I have started painting them with soft fern (2144-40)by Benjamin Moore and now she isn’t sure she wants them green.  I’ll take a door over for her to see this week.  Luckily, I have only done a couple so far.  The whole room will be painted in oil  because that was what was used originally.  I like the finish on the oil paint better anyways.  It won’t be fun doing the ceiling though.
