I do this everytime i decorate i think it will be alright and everytime i regret it and wish I'd just paid someone. It takes twice aslong as you think it will the whole house ends up upside down. You still need to fit in everyday life around it kids, work, cooking, cleaning, washing etc. I'm miserable please send alcohol and snacks 😫

How is painting going OP?
I had some annoying house chores to do this week and the only thought that kept me going was 'at least I'm not in OP's shoes, let that be a reminder that painting is a bigger hassle until it's completed'!
