The week before Christmas, my son and DIL put down a new ceramic tile floor in my kitchen. I stripped the wallpaper off and painted the walls (actually I thought it was kinda fun - call me weired!). Last night I got through stripping the wallpaper off the 1/2 bath downstairs and I'm getting ready to paint it, too. Also laying new ceramic tile floor there. Unfortunately, DS and DIL have already gone home to Colorado. But I'm kinda hooked on this. Hang in there - keep painting - it might grow on you.
