Wet paint!

Today I finally did it. It's been on my mind for a long time but I never got myself to do it. Today, I had everything I needed so I set down to do the job. I painted the bathroom window in white. It used to be white but the color washed off and turned into a shade of yellow in time...now it's freshly painted in white.

Firstly,  I thought it would be quick...it wasn't. A double window has a lot of edges, corners, sides...phew! Secondly, I needed my arm muscles to spread the paint evenly until my dad brought the diluent and made the paint more fluid. Thirdly, after a certain point it became a challenge not to get painted myself...I could not grab just from anywhere, I could not lean of any side of it, ah...

I did it though! The next window is the kitchen one...I will probably take a day, be exhausted at the end, have sore muscles, and a considerable quantify of paint on my hands/blouse/hair. Needless to say how much I enjoy doing these things; or how much I enjoyed my run in the park by the Mures today; or just how much I enjoy being in Arad, sleeping in my bed, having mint tea at night, greeting street corners, benches, trees, alleys...
