This is how

a house gets painted when people are living in it.

all the floors get covered

even the stairs

rooms are closed up

this room got a “door” (zipper) but we are too afraid to go in and out of as we don’t want to knock down the plastic

Unfortunately this is our Christmas tree room

we use the kitchen zipper

Last week when the other painters were fired I decided to finish our new bedroom

I’m so glad I did

Last night it was actually warm enough to sit outside on the balcony. A peaceful place amid all the chaos.
