Another Spring Project -- Done!

I am showing you a picture, snapped this morning,

of some pretty flowers

that border my front walkway.

This lovely sight is just to get your attention.

Sorry, but I have a very mundane post today.

  

What is it about Spring

that makes all those

little house projects,

that you have managed to ignore 

for quite a while,

suddenly seem you cannot

stand for another day?

My lovely little house is an old one,

almost 100 years old.

Last week, after living with the vents

for the past eight or so years,

I suddenly looked at them and thought,

yuk.

These vents are probably original 

to the house and it's not a wonder

they look awful. 

Time for a little cosmetic update.

We had a perfect day last weekend

for spray painting outside.

Before and after!

Why do I let these little project go for so long?

Especially  when the whole job 

took about an hour,

and what a difference!
