Why do people paint over beautiful wood in their homes.  We have an original 1920s bathroom door and sometime before we moved in someone painted one side of the door.  So STOOPID.  I have been hot gunning the paint and scrapping and sanding and still there is more sanding to do to get it to its original beauty. 

I am working on some internal betterment.  It is really hard.  Especially the forgiving of crazy people who do things to harm and don't think there are long term consequences to them.
