Painting the Kitchen


Today we started the quite big job of painting the kitchen here in the Glen. We had bought the paint when we were both down in Edinburgh, white, to cover the yellow in situ followed by Antique Cream as the final coat. We had to work quite hard Graham did the roller work including the ceiling and yours truly did all of the fiddly bits. We worked well together and Ruaridh helped by brushing against the wet paint. We have now finished putting on the white paint, tomorrow we put on the final coat.
Up early as I had to telephone John H re the buying of a new water tank and a new door and other bits and bobs. Early cuppa, a wash before breakfast, then down to the post office as the package delivered today for the 'midge machine' contained the wrong things and had to go back!
Had a lovely walk on the beach Ruaridh enjoyed one or two skimming stones, back home for lunch then started on the painting.
Very late finishing the painting but it is starting to look good. Had salmon in cream sauce with pasta for dinner with bread and salad, delicious!
Very tired tonight worked hard, Layla and family are fine as is my mum. Goodnight.
