Oye...paint and packin

We are probably the only ones who have moved in or out of Armonk in an open trailer. Neighbors must think we are hillbillies.

After unpacking at the Montross, I painted the ceiling in the kitchen and then gave the dining room and kitchen a second coat of the yellow.  Gina worked on painting closets upstairs. 

I then patched the holes above the fireplace where there must have been sconces at one time.

The spackle was taking some time to dry so I painted the trim in the kitchen and most of the dining room while Gina kept painting closets and shelves in closets. Takes her as long to do the little spaces as is takes me to do the big rooms.

Our electric company came and picked up the fridge that the previous owners left that was missing its shelves. Con Ed has a rebate program for picking up a 'second' fridge. Instead of Sears charging us $15 to haul it away, they paid us $30 to haul it away.

We had another lovely dinner a la Trader Joes. I have never eaten so much food from the microwave in my life. Dinner is the one time we get to get out of the house and sit on our Armonk (trash) lawn furniture.

After a little dog walk, I got a first coat of paint on the living room walls. The color is a tuscan yellow.  At first it seemed like canary yellow...but it dried a much better shade.

After dinner..Gina painted another closet.
