A Holiday Monday

Well, I’ve been working in my soon to be library room today. I sponged over some of the funky green color in there and I’m not sure if I like it or not. I think I’ll wait for a day or so and see how it strikes me in the daylight. I like the look of the metallics sponged on top of it, but I’m just not sure about the green. It’s kind of a funky olive color. I bought it spur of the moment, which is never how I buy paint. Maybe there’s a reason. lol

So, I’ll see how I like it in the morning. If it doesn’t sing, I’ll go get more of the base color and paint over it. Better to lose the $20 on paint than all the work of having to redo it. We’ll see how I like it in the morning. I’m 50/50 on it right now.

So, that’s my big news of the day.

I haven’t been out of the house except to hang out and get clothes. I had some left overs from my Wichita trip for brunch and some popcorn for whatever comes between lunch and dinner. I think I do need to fix myself some actual food for dinner. Even though it’s almost 10, I haven’t had any yet.

I also need to take a bath and get some of the paint off me. I always paint myself in addition to whatever else I’m working on.

One of my other color thoughts is blue and gold in there – an Egyptian theme – I may mix up some colors and try that out and see how I like it too. I think I’m definitely getting another gallon of the Porter paint that is the base color. I was really borderline of having enough and if I put blue on and don’t want it I doubt I’ll have enough to cover that up and finish up in there. We’ll see.

Maybe in the morning I’ll think it’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. lol

I do like the woodwork I’ve gotten to being that bright white. I’d prefer it be natural but I just don’t have the energy to attempt that so bright white it is. What was in there was so nasty that this is a dramatic improvement. Now, if I can just decide about the green color. We’ll see…

For the rest of the time before I go to bed I have to do some MHA things. I’m behind!
