I Love Spring I admit it and nothing makes me happier than being out in the garden playing in the dirt. So long as the temperature is above 50F I am to be found when not at work outside scratching around on my hands and knees. The problem is we started a redecorating/remodeling project after Christmas and it isn't finished. I am sick of painting I don't even like painting and I want to be outside! So when it comes to around the home which do you choose painting or gardening?

Well I'd love to have a house to fix up and paint, but I don't actually enjoy the TASK of painting. I sure do love the end result, though.
I'd much rather be digging in the dirt any day! Our temps dropped down for the last day or two, but I'm hoping it'll get back up there so I can do more outside.

LOL I sometimes wonder if I wish I didnt have a house to decorate. My hubby built this house 20 years ago but he appears to have forgotten to finish it! The end result is the only thing that is keeping me hanging on the end of a paint brush at all. Here in Ohio the last few days have been chilly so I came indoors again so I guess on my days off I am praying for "mixed" weather. I need a sunny day in the garden to reward myself for a a cold/wet days painting!

I'm in Ohio too and yes, it did get cold, didn't it?
Today didn't turn out too bad by late afternoon, but this morning it was brrrrrr ...
I'm hopeful that it'll warm back up before the week is out.

Hi there overhere!
We don't have spring here in our country, sadly. We only have dry and rainy season.
I don't like doing any of those two. But if I really have to choose, I will choose painting. I have tried painting our old computer shop in Manila back when we were living there and it was fun especially because my sisters and our friends helped me. I'm just not really into gardening but my husband is.
