Comments on: A Tale of Two Brushes By Lisa http://chicklitisnotdead.com/2009/10/a-tale-of-two-brushes-by-lisa/ Two girls who believe that books with high fashion and happy endings never go out of style Wed, 08 Feb 2012 21:32:54 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Lisa http://chicklitisnotdead.com/2009/10/a-tale-of-two-brushes-by-lisa/comment-page-1/#comment-2656 Lisa Mon, 12 Oct 2009 19:45:40 +0000 http://chicklitisnotdead.com/?p=3434#comment-2656 Liz-- I should have called you first. But I'm glad I made this tactical error early on as I will now opt out of all TEAM oriented household projects. As they say, there is no I in team. So, when it comes to painting, fixing, building-- really anything that ends with "ing", I'd rather be an I and spare Matt the pain! Xoxo Liz– I should have called you first.

I made the same rookie "living together" mistake about ten years ago. One room was all we had to paint before we knew our work styles didn't "work". Let's just say one of us works like a SNAIL and the other doesn't pay too much attention to detail. Disastrous! Great post! xoxo Um, yeah, this is why I have my contractor on speed dial!

I was just along for the ride ;) xoxo PS: Plumber cracks are out. Honey–Need I remind you that YOU were the one who suggested painting the living room and dining room?

But the end result is always a well-done project, some life lessons, and good blog fodder :) Honey---plumbing together next weekend?!

That sounds frustrating even for the most skilled individual. I think when you try to do anything where two people want to be in charge, it's a recipe for disaster. In our household, we both want to be in the driver's seat! I’m not sure I could attempt wallpaper. That sounds frustrating even for the most skilled individual.

I did it a couple times with my late wife and found that the process itself is aggravating enough but doing with the wife is impossible. I'm helping my ladyfriend paint her kitchen right now and we're having a good time. While we are waiting for each coat to dry, We manage to find something to keep us busy.
