More progess made this weekend.

So the kitchen guys did not come this weekend but guess who did! The painters. They showed up on Saturday morning to start was what paid for 3 weeks ago and if that delay can be rationalized with concerns over the weather what about them bringing the wrong paint? Yes. I looked out to see them painting the house almost the exact same baby poop brown it was when we bought it. The crew understood enough English to stop painting but had to get the "boss" on the phone to discuss the issue.

The boss informed me that it was the correct color as we had requested to have the house repainted the color it already was. BS! I got livid with him explaining that the house was being painted because we hated the color it was and wanted a different one. WE had requested Cromwell Grey and that poop stain color was most certainly not Cromwell Grey. He then asked to speak to Helen, I assume thinking that it might be easier to get by with the wifey, not realising that a few weeks ago Helen had made some lady shit cabinets. So, 30 minutes later, and with the right color, the guys were back at the job.


Here are some SPLers that are most certainly not celebrating the Sinco de Mayo.

Oh, and isn't it funny that of all the colors available from all the paint manufactures in the US Helen finally landed on "Cromwell" Grey?
