I did it!

I did it! The room I was talking about painting, I got the two "furniture-goes-against" walls completely done and the "cathedral-peak" walls done as high as I could safely reach - so, not over the fireplace, and not over the snack bar. But tomorrow I can start moving furniture back out of the hall and dining room! (I'm taking my time putting all the books back. That's going to be a huge task.)

Now I've just got the lawyer-foyer, and that I'm hiring out along with the two peaks in the sunroom.

I need my nighttime meds, a heating pad, and my current book. And chocolate.

I've heard it both ways! Foyer, that is. I'd probably pronounce it "foy-yay" if I ever used the word but my brother would wince at my inflection.

Heh, I never thought about my accent at all until age 15, when traveling somewhere through the Midwest U.S. A kid at the campground where we were staying asked where I was from, and I had to say "Maryland" several times before I realized that I was swallowing most of it.
