things were strange when i was far away

Home Improvement Day #1 is drawing to a close and things are going okay. I painted the bedroom ceiling, which was no fun at all BUT at least it is done! Except for the little spot that I only realized I missed when it got dark enough to turn on the lights. Them’s the perils of painting over one shade of white with an only slightly different shade of white. But I can fix that tomorrow, right?
Then I did a little spackling + sanding in preparation for painting the walls tomorrow. Afterwards I wanted to vacuum up the little bits of flaky paint + stuff, and I accidentally sucked up a paper towel into the vacuum hose. Apparently I am still not used to the massive sucking strength of our new vacuum! I had to use the ceiling painting pole to push the paper towel out of the tube. Never a dull moment.
I’ve been ignoring Gus all day and now he’s climbing all over me — gotta go!
