You know sometimes ideas don't click until stated in a way that your thought pattern can suddenly accept as a an epiphany....last night while helping our friends Lara and Sunjay paint their beautiful home, Lara did just that. She used the words "drop-cloth" and in doing so I realized I'd never quite thought of it in the terms she spoke of....all these years I have always used a drop-cloth to "drop" at the base of a wall I might be painting NOT as a vessel in which to catch "drops" of escaping paint drips that find themselves airbourne and falling to their demise on the cloth provided by 'said' painter to protect furniture and floors...so, Thank you, Lara!
On that note I'm off into the day-----what a nice sunny day...surely I'll be able to finish my porch glue removal to begin setting up the studio...my shoulder/neck is a little sore, but since I can see the light at the end of this tunnel, I am determined to override the aches and fly to finish line in due time. By the way, Cindy gave me a tip for instant muscle relief: put rice in a tube sock and microwave for about 90 seconds and place on sore muscle. This is especially helpful for necks because you can stay mobile while the little rice pellets (a warm, moist heat b/c of water retention in the rice) do their magic...Nice!
Alright 2 pieces of instant knowledge I didn't know, I didn't know!! HA!
