So I went to help paint Chuck's sister's house yesterday. Let me realistically say that I did most of the work despite there being 3 of us there. The other girl's grandma just died and I didn't really expect her to do much, but she was awesome (and skinny!)and was able to get into the tight little corners and celings that I'd rather not risk my life over. We finished everything in 8 hours!
Today, Chuck's mom and sister came to pick me up to go to Home Depot for some paint for the toy chest and small wooden chair that they wanted me to paint. These are the same items that I already painted!
We stopped at a hot dog place for lunch, and we were talking about my mom's trip to Thailand. I told them they my mom didn't get all of the stuff she wanted done because they weren't really important, and "maybe she was just too lazy to do it." Which I wholeheartedly did not mean it in such a negative way. I was trying to express that she didn't have time and they weren't necessary and she didn't feel like it.
Well, Chuck's mom totally turned it around and said, "Is that where you got it from?"
What a bitch!
So here I sit with a quart of primer and a quart of paint, and I just don't feel like painting. I just want to call them up and tell them I'm too lazy to paint. But the sister didn't say anything. It's the mom. and the items belong to the sister's kid.
I wanted to paint, and I still do. I just don't like being talked down to!
And let me say again that we're not even married yet.
