Got any WD-40?

I got it, with a little more determination.

Really, Suz, who in their right mind paints over "some" of their cabinet hardware...like the hinges and stuff... Even if you don't want to bother taking it off, it's so easy to slap a piece of masking tape over it! But no, the people that painted the bathroom this ungodly shade of green just slapped that green paint right onto the hinges!

I took them all apart and soaked the hinges in paint remover. They look so nice and actually function correctly now.

It's coming along slow but surely in there. I've painted everything I can reach with primer, Steve needs to come in and do along the ceiling. We should start painting the final color on tonight. Then we're going to my folks house while Steve does the floor. It has to be leveled out before the linoleum can be laid...takes about 12 hours.

I need to buy paint for my bedroom and office...everything seems to be on sale now, so even if I don't get to it right away, I'll at least have it on hand. Picking colors is soooo hard, though! I hate to just go with off-white. So far I'm pretty much decided on pale yellow for the bedroom and pale blue for the office, but actually picking SHADES is tough...I have multiple sample strips that I've had in my purse for MONTHS planning to pick one shade and go buy the stuff, but I get stuck.

Sounds like they had about as much sense as they had taste in colors!
