Fortunately for me I was deemed incompetent to paint by the person in charge of decorating the house. I was allowed to help strip wallpaper. Our entire house was wallpapered. No longer. Unfortunately I was designated the one to use masking tape and caulk. Fortunately we are done with painting as far as I know. Unfortunately my lack of knowledge on the subject has no bearing on reality. I think we are done, and I hope so.
I am allowed to decorate the garage and it has really cool pictures of my 911 and some poster pictures, one of the space shuttle and other awesome photos not allowed in the house. I have a 24x36 of this on my bathroom wall.
