i think it would be great if the wif came home one day, and announced to me that she was gonna start carrying.

Its really quite the shock, especially since just about a year ago I was struggling to get her to the shooting range let alone be in the same room as a firearm. I want to get her back to the range again, but the temp gets up to 95*F by 830am and that's just not enough time to be out there. Oh well, at least she WANTS to take the class!

that's great, bc.

Get the Paxton Quigley book, "Armed and Female", for her.

Will check with wife, maybe she will loan hers out.

You've never heard of a flat sheen? We have textured walls, so the flat sheen hides the texture. While wet, it is very shiny and then dries to the flat sheen.

When we did our front bedroom, it was a dark blue, almost like a midnight. It went on the wall as a turquoise and we freaked out, then after it dried it darkened/dulled up and looks beautiful!

WTF? ............I need to get out of my cave more..

my wife was much the same way as bc's...regarding having "weapons in the same room"...for a long time. even though she used to hunt, years ago. it took a bit of conversation to allow a shotgun next to the bed...and to get her to be familiar with it and the safety...etc.

Haha, yea we were doing a semi-gloss (eggshell) paint for our other rooms, but it was just too shiny. Looked into it more, and you use a flat sheen to hide imperfections on the wall. The shinier the paint, the easier to clean and wipe down, BUT it also shows imperfections in the texture/wall-straightness/etc much more. So we switched to flat and it looks so much nicer!

We have read though that you want semi-gloss or shinier in the kitchen and bathrooms, but everywhere else you can use flat. It really adds some elegance to the walls! Like, right now I'm looking across my living room about 15ft at the new paint, and it is so dull I can't even tell that the wall is textured. But next to it where the old paint is still showing, I can tell its textured and it looks pretty uneven and bad.
