Reply to "Getting Permission To Paint! ~ Problems and Alternatives"

I don't even want to get started about painting the walls. Our Sunday School board was all for putting murals on the walls. We were getting ideas together to bring to the Church Board, but we were shot down before it ever got to them.

The Buildings and Properties Committee had found a willing person to paint all the walls in the educational unit an eggshell color. Including painting over a nice mural that had been up for twenty years. 

We now have egg shell colored walls throughout the building. Nothing is "supposed" to be connected to our newly painted walls. WHY?  Who would decorate their HOME like this? It makes no sense, but I think they are afraid of what will get put up without permission, or attached the wrong way. They offered to put tack strips up near the ceiling, but two months later, they're still not there.

They also took down the screen we had made in the theater and didn't bother to use new sticky tape when they put it back up. So of course it fell. (I suppose I should be happy they attempted to put it back up.) I went in the room to prepare for my lesson and found the screen lying across the table that they had put in there. I decided I would go home and get my tape and return in the morning. But when I returned they had THROWN THE SCREEN AWAY!!! It cost me another $20 for the materials to replace the screen and $5 for the border.

And people think it's the children that have caused the handfuls of hair to be missing from my head!!!!!
