I tried to paint the frame of the garage today. I thought, this will be simple right? Hmmmmm. Not so.
I naively thought that the old paint since it was peeling would come right off. I was not counting on the fact that the garage frame has not been painted since, oh, 1952 and so when I tried to scrape the paint off the wood came right along with it. I spent most of the day picking splinters out of my fingers.
I tried to get the old paint off, I really did. I scraped. I sanded. I caulked. But then I gave up. And I just painted over it. And it's gonna peel off. And I don't care.
I am just not a This Old House kind of girl.
