You know, painting a bedroom really doesn’t take all that long. I guess you can paint a bedroom in several hours, can’t you?
What takes so long is the preparation. First, you have to move all of the furniture, either taking it out of the room, or moving it into the center of the room. If it stays in the room, then you have to cover it. Next, if there are pictures on the walls—and who doesn’t have pictures on the walls—you have to remove them. Most of us then spackle over the holes, sand them lightly, and create a smooth wall surface. Now if you have wallpaper up and you want to paint, removing that is a whole other matter that involves more tools and chemicals and more patience than I have some weekends. But all of this preparation, when done properly, is what insures a beautiful paint job.
Sometimes life is a lot like painting a bedroom. It takes a lot longer to get ready to actually do something than it does to just do it.
