Painting machine

I have tried to turn myself into a painting machine without much success. I really need to have three ceilings painted before tomorrow morning so that my Dad can come over and reinstall the light fixtures in those rooms. I have 2 out of the 3 complete. After an awards dinner (no, I am not winning one) I will be headed back home to start on the last room. Everything is taped off I just have to pull out some paint and get to work. I have finished the smallest room and the largest room and the one tonight is the most complicated room. All of this is to be done with one antique light fixture as the light source. Last night I painted with only the help of track lighting. I only had one section I could find this morning that was a little light on paint. Next time I have flat white on a roller I will hit that spot...maybe.

As a side note, I think I am the first person to paint the ceilings since the house was built in the two rooms I have painted thus far. Oh, and the evolution of paint colors in the den are this; pink, light blue, khaki, and soon to be a medium-dark blue. I have decided to leave the trim a dark wood and not paint it white in that room. I figured that if I change my mind I can always go back and paint it later. Better go, work is about to start. :)
