Before

Not for the faint of heart, my dear sweet house's 'before' picture. It has been this khaki / white peeling patchwork for longer than I care to admit. But now, thanks to my fairy godfather {aka Dad}, sweet house is getting a bit of tweaking and much needed coat or 2 of paint. The nice painter-men were here today power-washing {or was that just some sort of strange contest to see how much water they could shoot through the airy bits?} and full paint prep begins next Monday.

I'll keep you posted.
