Fluffy white clouds and cobalt blue skies. Haven’t seen that in a while.

One of those professional perfectionist no doubt ?
Good for you, now paint us a masterpiece...🤩
& now my basement is reorganized.
No, not a perfectionist, I just don't like using tape, or drop cloth. Just me & the brush.
Busy Bee Busy Bee Busy Bee !
Airless pumps, spray guns and automatic rollers are out of the question ?
I absolutely hate painting, I understand the value of sealant, waterproofing, and rustproofing but truth be told, I'd rather take a beating. Anything I can do to speed up the process, sign me up, game on.
Feel vindicated, accomplished, justified ?
We could of just as easily packed up the car, headed to the mountains and soaked our toes in a cold mountain stream. Counted the stars on a clear cool night while listening to the fire crackle as our steaks sizzled on the grill.
We have different definitions of vacationing..:-)
I bought a spray gun before but I never cleaned out properly, so I tossed it. I only bought it to paint the basement ceiling / underfloor beams & that was accomplished. I wasn't in the best mind frame at the time because my body was sick so I just tossed that thing in the garbage. I can't fuss around with the tape. Paint always leaks underneath of it and I can never get it straight. Brushes nowadays paint such a straight line as long as I go slow, it looks great.
I love the mountains. My parents own a lot of acreage upstate. I haven't talked to them in almost 10 years but I am trying to bridge that gap. Maybe next year for vacation.
Seem to be the trend, I've 6 air sprayers and three airless ones, all picked up second hand for super cheap because of improper cleaning, I strip them and soak in carb cleaner or zoelene. Rinse dry assemble replace a seal or two, good to go... So much for shop talk...
I do however envision a zen painter bee with a lone brush studying Miyagi karate "stroke up...stroke down lilybeeson".
How was the reunion today? Lots of happy faces? Did you have special a party planned?
10 years you say, your a better person than I. I'm working past 40 and have no intentions of a reversal. I let it all go long ago, came to the realization they weren't going to change, and were too toxic to let in.
I hope you find peace with it one way or another.
Ps. We can find our own mountain streams.
