Gone out to buy paint!

I need to go out for about an hour to buy some floor paint. I am painting my work-room which will eventually be carpeted, but at this time, since I don't have a shed to put my wood working tools in, (Actually I do have a shed ... It is neatly packed away in a cardboard box) (Actually! I have 2 sheds! The other one is so full of stuff, dust, spiders, little bits of wood ... about a ton of it, plaster molds, screen printing stuff, plus all the stuff that normal people collect over the years ... Not much room to walk around in, ... I could not possibly work in it!) So ... Until my darling son finds the time to come and build my lovely shed, my family room has to be my work room. So I am going to paint the concrete floor. That way when I cut timber in there, it will be easy to clean up. (As opposed to cleaning a carpet.) So I am off to buy the paint. This project is going to take a couple weeks to complete as I have to shift all sorts of stuff all by myself and I am not so young any more. Wish me luck! If I disappear for a couple of days you know where I am.
