I kept my activities rather light today. My body was screaming out for a day off but I did not completely give in.
Got the outdoor window frames painted. While doing that, my shoulders got so bad that both arms went numb from the shoulders down. Got so bad I could not control my right hand for a while several times.
Then got the outside of the doors done. Including the door to the shed, which had to be painted because daughter had painted runes on it. People house hunting may take them as witchcraft symbols, so that had to go.
Scraped all the excess paint off the inside windows.
Avoided doing much on my knees for fear if my knee gave out like my arm did, I'd be like a turtle on it's back, unable to get up. I'm getting older but not quite to that point yet.
Went to Dollar Tree. Of course the one nearest the house did not have the knee pads. Oh, well. Just have to deal with it. Starting on baseboards and door frames inside tomorrow. Hoping that goes quickly. I already taped a few areas to have a head start. If I get that done early enough, on the the office floor.
Thur I'll work on daughter's room and tile.
I'm working Fri and Sat plus next Wed. So I decided I'll get my shopping list together, be ready for remaining items to buy and pick that stuff up before work. Anything left undone can be finished Sun, Mon and Tue. Work Wed and (if I haven't by then) get the house listed next Thur.
At this point I am definitely happy to be getting finished. I am sick of this.
