Day 41 ~ Moonshine

Day 41 ~ Moonshine 

Feb 10, 2014

My first: I coated my butt with green paint and "mooned" my wall.

Today was filled with work and now I have to think of and do a “first”! What are my options when I have so much work to do at home to get my master bedroom ready for carpet to be installed in two days? It’s been challenging for me coming up with “firsts” due to my limited time and the winter weather. And blogging about each “first” takes a good amount of thought and time. But I will not regret the time spent at the end of the year and I don’t regret it now.

Anyway, I decided to take the paint roller and paint my butt with green paint. Then I proceeded to press my rear end against my wall to "make my mark". I started off with a pretty good mark. I rolled again and did two more!

Then came the task (and I do mean task) of getting the paint off. I had to rub and rub until my rear went from green to red.  As I was doing this, I felt so silly about this “first”. I should be busy painting and not “mooning” my wall and then having to clean up. Oh, and of course, let’s not forget the time to do the photo shoot!


I continued with my evening of painting and finally finished the wall I was repainting from tan to green. When I got to the part of covering up my marks, I hesitated. I thought about these last 41 days of 2014 and all the different things I've done and blogged about and, of course, of what was to come. It was kind of a sentimental moment. I was tempted to leave one of the marks uncovered as a reminder to me of my year of “firsts”. But these photos will be my memory…
