One of the distinct advantages of working for a nonprofit is the time off. Yesterday was an office holiday, Veteran's Day, and with ample leave in reserve I made it a four day weekend. Not that I had planned to, but by the end of yesterday I had started repainting the laundry area. The color is bold and also clashes with the blue trimmed windows (not my doing). So today is being spent finishing the walls and painting the window casings (which I hate doing). I'll post pictures this evening once the painting is done.
I'm excited to hang a nice cedar clothes rod back there so clothes are hung up right out of the dryer and don't get wrinkly, finding a good full size ironing board (which may now be unnecessary) and getting a decent hamper that doesn't fall apart when its moved. We've used the area as a house project staging place in the past, but no more, not after it's all spruced up. Guess we'll just have to use the front (outdated) bathroom that's far down on the list of home remodeling to stage the projects that are higher on the list now.
