Why Do Pregnant Women Feel the Need to Paint?

For every pregnancy I am compelled to either paint or drastically change my hair style! After my first 2 kids I changed chopped off my hair and painted a little. I moved to strictly painting after that because it takes me too long to grow my hair out. So guess what? Since I am pregnant again I had to paint almost my entire house! I have to admit when I take on this much I usually get help. My sister usually rescues me from my folly. I always go into it thinking, "It's such a little house! It will only take me a day or two!" Hah! Ha! Haaaa! Is all I have to say about my clouded and crazy pregnant mind! It took almost a week of hard work..and I had help too. I went from a dark color to a light color and that requires priming and then painting. That is twice the work!Now for the next challenge! Looking for fabric for curtains and giving my home a face lift. I want to simplify, have a totally new and clean yet artsy look. Will show pix when I'm done :)

You do great work. When I was pregnant I decided to refinish a dresser someone was throwing out. I guess that was my way of painting something since I was renting and couldn't paint the apartment.
