Did I say "ready" to paint, what I meant was...

6 rolls of painter's tape down... who knows how many to go...

Spent the morning vacuuming, really not as bad as I let on yesterday. Still wish I had the compressor to air wash the walls - in storage - it'll have to wait. Spent the afternoon (and evening) taping stuff. For having no wood trim, there still was an awful lot of prep to do. The windows and outlets (wires only) on the second floor are done. The kids and master tubs, most of the copper stubouts, most of the air vents, most of the ceiling fan fixtures are taped - probably another hour's worth of work in the morning... then downstairs... A little different than a typical prep job since I'm not used to spray-painting... not sure how much (or little) control I'll have as to where the paint goes - but definitely don't want any on the windows...

Well, still hoping to get to paint tomorrow, but prep always takes longer that one expects...
