Answer: Last summer I painted our house. First, I washed the exterior using warm water and a mild detergent. Then I sealed all the chinks in the walls with putty. When the putty had dried, I had to paint the exterior. I used a latex paint because it dries easily and cleans up with water. I needed a whole week to finish this part of the job. I used a color that was very close to the original color. When I finished the job, I felt a great deal of satisfaction. Even my dad said that I had done a good job.
