The painting continues while Norman rages

Another weekend and we were determined to get one room painted.  Our good friend and master painter Nancy came up and we spent the weekend painting the kitchen and living room and they are done!!  Hurray.

We were able to go out Friday night to a bar in Westerly Rhode Island where they serve the largest Martinis (for only $10-12) that you can't finish one and expect to walk out of the place without assistance.  I only drank half this time after learning my lesson the night of our closing and realizing later what hit me.

Unfortunately Nancy got to witness one of Norman's night rages-when we returned he had torn through 2 window screens, soiled an upstairs bathroom (why that room-perhaps it was symbolic since it is painted red-red for rage?), and the ultimate indignity he peed all over Irv's espresso machine which was on the mudroom on the floor behind a closed door which he managed to open.  I am sure the neighbors heard Irv's screams (but then again they might have been passed out by then).  

Thing are shaping up but we have a long way to go.  It was nice to sit on our deck Sat night and watch people riding horses in front of the house.  The dogs did a double take (the same look when the spyed the large bull sitting near a fence on the farm nearby).  Whattttt is that?
