Taper time = Black doors.....
With the marathon just a week away it is taper time, which supposedly is a good thing but makes me super nervous. I mean I didn't taper before running my 20 miles and that felt great, but I have been sticking to a training schedule and that is what it says to do so that is what I am doing!!
So, I like projects, with less time spent running I have picked up a paint brush and started painting all our interior doors (on the main level), black!! I think Chuck originally thought I was crazy when I told him what I was going to do, but I think it is growing on him! And to be completely honest, I don't know why parents of little kiddos haven't thought about doing this before because it definitely hides all the little dirty fingerprints that I am constantly cleaning off doors!!
So I started by painting the front door, I was already painting the outside of the front door black but then I decided since I was painting one side I might as well do the other...I wish I had a before picture but this is how it turned out...
Please ignore the kiddo toys, it seemed like everytime I got everything cleaned up to take a picture something else came up so, pictures with toys it is!! When I painted the doors I had to paint the trim around it which was really ok since I have been meaning to do that since we moved in 3 years ago!!
Then I figured since our front door was black our back door should be black as well so then I did this...(actually have a before and after pic here)
