house painting 10/18/05

So the house still isn't fully painted. Despite having all summer to work on it. Despite enlisting my brother and sister to help. Despite help from Hiroe. And now we're hearing weather forecasts that mention snow. Hopefully there will be about 3 more warm days to finish it. If not, the neighbors will just have to live with a chameleon house on their street. Blue like the sky, white like snow, and yellow like the sun. Fortunately for us, we don't notice it much. We mostly come and go through the backyard where the house looks all yellow. And once inside there are no reminders of the job not finished. Oh well.
