Painting by Numbers
There was a time when painting by numbers suggested a childs activity book, but now it is more of an accounting thing. I have to order my paints online, partly because they are cheaper and partly because there is absolutely no where around here which sells anything, let alone at a competitive price.
Painting by numbers to me when the beginning of the month figures are calculated (by the long suffering wife) and I have to choose between buying paint, or wood.
One day I am going to have stacks of wood delivered and stored flat ready for use, and I am going to buy paint by the litre and always have a spare… but for now the work and the numbers are intrinsically linked and I can only do what I can do each month.
