When we first picked out the colors for the house (seems like months ago…wait, it may have been) we were still staring at drywall (actually, 5/8’s fire resistant greenboard) trying to imagine what the house would look like when it was done…which helped us enough to pick out the paint colors. I really think we did a great job with picking out all of the colors except for one, the kitchen. Once we were done painting it, it looked pretty much exactly the same as the greenboard that we just finished painting on three layers of base coat to make white!
Today, Mark came by and painted the entire kitchen white. Well, it is some fancy name for white…antique white, or albatross or something. I was sure to pick out the correct color white from our pile of new paint bucket cans (similar to college pyramids of Old Milwaukee beer cans) because we also bought three shades of grey for my office and have a white for summers office and a bunch of other colors and concrete sealers for downstairs. Seems like a small time mistake, but painting a room the wrong color really sucks.
Painting the kitchen…AGAIN

Yay! I’m glad that the kitchen is getting painted. It’s almost complete!
It definately does suck having to paint again, since now we have to paint around the cabinets, counter tops, appliances, floors, etc, but it’s better then laying tile we ended up hating and having to rip it out…
