No, I Don't Need these Brain Cells

Oh My! Did I underestimate this dining room reno job or what? I have totally forgotten the physical labour of stripping wood- especially wood with 100-year old paint on everything. Granted, it will look so much better than where I didn't strip the wood, but damn.

Lest we forget the fumes from the paint stripper.

Cheap buzz.

I have to step outside every twenty minutes or so or I'll pass out. Oh yeah, and I didn't notice that this room has four, count 'em f-o-u-r doors and two huge windows when I was deliriously determining the schedule for completion. We're talkin' THREE coats of stripper for each section. Of course, then I get to inhale the strip wash. I think the cats are pretty fucked up on this stuff. I tried to keep them out of the dining room, but when ladders are around, watch out.
