SOOC/Edit

More editing today.  I need to limit myself to a specific block of time to use the computer for photo editing, otherwise I'm going to waste my summer away with picures!

------------------------------

Went to ACE Hardware today to pic out paint for the downstairs bathroom - starting on my To-Do list for the summer!  I found a light green/gray color I really liked in a brochure; it was called Silvery Moon. I asked the guy to mix a gallon for me, but when he pulled the paint card from the shelf, the color was way different than the brochure color.  Bummer.  So I took the brochure and attempted to match the color I wanted to a paint card on the shelf.  

I found one, guess what it's name was?

Par Four. 

It was meant to be.  William will probably claim that it's a sign the bathroom should be decorated in golf crap, but luckily he doesn't make decorating decisions. 

I googled "how to paint behind the toilet" today.  

Laugh if you must, but I would like you to know that I am not the only one who has wondered how to do such a thing.  There are bazillions of Q&A forums that discuss the best way to paint behind the toilet. Unfortunately, most people recommended taking the tank off the toilet to paint behind it.  I would rather not do something that difficult and gross.  

I'm going to attempt to use a skinny roller with a long handle.  We'll see how it works.  

PS...if you come to my house and comment on my poor paint job behind the toilet, I'll paint-roller your face. :)
