I decided many years ago to not worry about matching my socks, its all gone down hill since then. I was in the local paint store and asked if they had any cards for house painters. The nice young man told the painter guy waiting in line (painter Lee) to go get me one of his cards. I looked at the card and said "I called you this winter", I had and never got an answer to my many calls. He said no was not him. I asked how busy he was and when could he do some painting for me. He looked me up and down (the children up and down) then said I should wait till the winter when he drops his prices. I was a little confused (as you can see below I hate to paint and am not skillful), I was willing to pay good money for a painter. When I got home I realized what a charity case we all looked. The kids were dirty, I was covered in paint and in my oldest clothing.
