What I Hear....

I posted this on my personal blog but feel it would be fun to share with everyone. Enjoy!

My husband and I launched into a bigger than expected job repainting our den this week and weekend.  I've also experienced some new and old familiar sounds in the process. "Hear's" my list!

• Squeaky, squishy paint rollers.
• Swooshy paint brushes.
• Scratchy tape coming off the roll.
• Zippy tape coming off the wall later.
• Burbly stir sticks in thick paint cans.
• Loud water faucets and more loud water when washing rollers and brushes. Seems this went on forever.
  
• Crunchy crackly drip cloths on the floor.
• Clangy metal ladder steps.
• Clangier paint trays on the ladder.
• Greg's rather odd singing with his Ipod. :o)
• Tinny metal screws dropped onto the electrical plates after being removed from the wall.
• A louder than normal room with the furniture moved out.
• Pleasant, polite clerks at the paint store. Yes, I could actually have a conversation with them all by myself - amazing!)
• Papers blowing off the counter in the breeze with the doors open.
• Really loud music bouncing off the walls as Greg and I rocked out while painting.
• And finally, the sighs and joys of both of us saying "It looks awesome!" when we finished.
