I Did the Math. The Paint Still Won.

I measured every wall, every window, every inch. I thought I was being smart—tape measure in one hand, calculator in the other, convinced I could outwit the paint aisle. But somehow, I still ran out halfway through the second coat. The color I picked? Sold out. I spent $120 on paint I didn’t even like, and now there’s a patchy wall staring back at me every morning. I followed every formula, but I didn’t budget for regret. If you’re reading this, double-check your math—and your expectations. This cost me more than money. #HomeBudgetFail #DIYDisaster #BrokeButCreative #Home
