I am supposed to be painting the scullery - or the random room as my elder daughter calls it. It is the tattiest and most unpleasant room in the house, at present it is painted one coat of terracotta with white showing through and the sink unit is grubby white with 80's style stencilled blue flowers on it. I am going to paint the sink unit green with black and white tiles(same as kitchen) and the walls sand white (same as kitchen), which should make it brighter and much cleaner looking. I have already painted one coat of the sink unit which looks better already and have tried getting the old tiles off, but huge sections of wall are coming away with them. I have spent the morning filling numerous cracks and holes around the walls and brushing them ready for painting, but I am quickly losing interest, I love painting but hate all the preparation, so am sitting at my computer looking at anything rather than getting on with it - it is amazing how much time you can waste when trying to put off doing something!
Nearly time for lunch ....
