In Over Our Heads Comes To A Slight Pause

Stan has now fixed all of the cracks

 repaired all of the water damage

and finished the priming.

This light in our  entry wall was green. Yup, green. It was cool in the early 90's. Stan spray painted it a groovy bronze.

Random alert! This isn't a picture about painting. It's just a lovely sunrise from this morning.

Although if I could paint it, I would.

Next comes the all-important choosing of the new wall color.

I finally settled on one, set up the ladder, and spent the afternoon painting.
What happened next did not involve a ladder. 

Just a evening meeting at the church, a sidewalk, and some ice.

Followed by a trip to the emergency room, five stitches, lots and lots (and lots) of blood,  

and a slight headache. 

So.
Embarrassing.

 

I did have the good sense not to lose consciousness, saving myself the inconvenience of a scan and an overnight stay.

I've been promised a black eye and a 2 1/2 inch scar. Just between you and me I'd rather not have a permanent reminder of my lack of grace....
