I finally got everything ready to be painted with the wall color.  I hooked up the paint sprayer and started going.  It took less than a half hour to paint my bedroom.  Guess what.  It was the exact same color that was on there before!  Augh!  Anyway, I got that done and headed off to spray Kalyn's room thinking that I would get it done quickly and then go to bed.  The machine started acting up 30 seconds in!  I took it apart and found out the piston had seized.  It took some ingenuity (and a hammer and screwdriver) to remove the piston, then I cleaned everything and started again.  I only got half the room painted before I decided I was just too tired to do any more.  So the other half will have to wait for sometime tomorrow.

Mom is coming in the morning to help me with the front yard, then I will continue on my own with the painting in the afternoon.  Things aren't going as smoothly as I would have liked, nor are they going as quickly.  I don't even feel like I got anything accomplished today.  I feel like I am in a tunnel and I can see the pinprick of light at the end.  I am running as fast as I can, but the light is just getting further and further away.  I am frustrated and I miss Heath and the girls.

He has his hands full with them in Jonesboro and I know that he had a rough first day of work--8 am-7 pm in the hot sun with 2-a-days.  I miss him.
