Why I'm getting my house painted.

Big House Expense Number One this year is getting the house painted. When I got the inspection done on this house (about 3.5 years ago! Can you believe it?), they said the paint job was ok at that point, but that I should get someone to come and scrape and re-paint some parts in the back. I obviously never did that, and so they have obviously gotten worse. Mom apparently spends no time on my deck (which is a shame, because my deck is awesome, and John and I spend a lot of time out there. I suppose when the weather is nice, I'm more likely to venture out there because, really, a pool and a patio beat a deck anyday. Plus they feed me good food.), because every time I talk about the house needing a good paint job, she always says "but your paint looks fine!" So, here's a few samples of just a *few* of the problem spots on the back of the house.

 

 

 


In other news, I'm doing a Month of Mono in April (all my 365 photos for April will be in Black and White), and I'm excited.

Did you know you can follow my flickr stream in your favorite rss reader? May I suggest you either follow my full stream by adding a subscription to this, or if you're interested in just my 365 photos (so my favorite photo of each day), you can subscribe to this.
