Call me CRAZY!!!

What I am about to tell you will surly make you call me CRAZY  -- I wanted to paint our house and my Dear Husband thought we could handle doing the painting ourselves...What he really meant was - I could do the painting!!!  AND I agreed....I know our neighbors thought I was CRAZY when they would drive by and see me on rooftops, extension ladders etc...Last BUT not least - It took FOUR (4) coats to cover the green - YIKES..it took me all summer.  I must admit I did have someone come and do the high parts on the ends - other than that I was the Painter - I was even out there painting on my birthday!  But really - I kinda enjoyed it - the weather was fabulous most the time and I really got a chance to be outside and listen to birds and other creatures..It was quite an adventure...

 

 
Do you think the yellow is better than the green?
