Paint Job

when it comes to renovating I'm definitely slapdash in fact it would be fair to say that I can be rather rash sanding bores me senseless and it's a job I try to shirk because I lack the patience for the preparation work I’ve slapped the paint on badly it’s dripping down the door oozing over skirting boards to decorate the floor spots are on the window and spilled upon on the stair unfortunately I've got most of it stuck on my face and hair they say patience is a virtue a saying I should not ignore because now that it’s all finished..... I wish I'd sanded more

Yes, you are right and one job leads to another. It always takes longer than expected. A funny poem. Well done.
