It is a job. Painting interior rooms, that is.
Thanks to a friend who did all the research finding just the right color for her walls, who was I to question it? I just copied her paint color choices and bought Behr's Indulgent Mocha in semi-gloss with primer included. It has been 15 years since the walls were painted white, so they were definitely needing color coverage.
To be frank, my job of painting where the wall meets the popcorn textured ceiling is lousy. So I looked here where it gives the rules. Following the rules is exhausting, but I guess it is worth it.
The husband has emphatically stated he is not going to help with this project, so wish me luck that my back and arms hold out. Three walls is the goal.
