Painting the kitchen
I've been timid about painting the interior of the RV. I have concerns about the paint sticking permanently to the vinyl panelling and concerns about covering areas I would regret not leaving original. But I'm quickly getting over that. If the paint falls off I'll put it back on. It's going to be SO much better looking in here with the dark panelling painted over. I'll post a picture or two when I get farther along with the project.

Our Peripheral Existence
Being a minority in both caste and class, we moved about anyway on the hem of life, struggling to consolidate our weaknesses and hang on, or to creep singly up into the major folds of the garment. Our peripheral existence, however, was something we had learned to deal with, probably because it was abstract.
