"I Feel So Blue, Just Thinking About You"

The colors have been chosen. The colors have been bought. The walls have been primed and tomorrow, my favorite part happens.


The COLOR goes on the wall.


So below is a pic of our color palette.


Do you see it?


It is there.


YUP! A little taste of green.


I'm very excited. But your looking and your thinking, "Hey there is four colors."


"What in the world does she plan on doing with FOUR colors?"


Actually, only three of the colors are going in the room. Desert Camel is on there because it is the color of most of our house. I had to make sure that I wasn't clashing.

By the way, it has to be said, "I LOVE HOME DEPOT COLOR SMART!" I get to spend hours playing with colors at home. Looking at all my different options. The computer makes suggestions based on my colors I already have. It is AWESOME!


I also, really like Home Depot paint. Brent and I have bought gallons and gallons of it. It is like jewelry to me. Pretty colors, pretty sheen, what else could a girl ask for? (I may be suffering just a tad from paint fumes)


I am in a very CAPITAL mood tonight.


So can you guess what I am up to?


Should be interesting!


Well here is the project as it stands.



The walls being primed. I'm feeling a little sad covering up the blue. I really do like it. Good bye my blue walls. You will be missed. By the way, that is not my soda. Nope, no way is that my soda.

Here are the walls right now. HUMMM why didn't I go all the way to the bottom with the primer? What am I going to do? I bet you are sitting on the edge of seat.


No!


Ohh, so I guess that means you have, like, your own life.


The light is dawning. However, you are still going to have to wait and see what I am up too. :) It is why you love me, I promise!

Registered! What Have I done?

I'm just home from the gym. My legs are shaky, my shirt is sweaty, and my muscles are loose. Saturday, I biked almost 30 miles on a hill before getting off the hill and finishing up at 35 miles. This morning I went for a nice 70 minute jog. (Legs are not HAPPY!) Last night before going to bed I registered for "Little Red." Paid my non-refundable registration fee. Needless to say I'm what you would called, "FREAKED!" Holy Cow what have I gotten myself into, a 100 mile bike ride.  Do you know that this ride will actually take me out of one state into another and back. Does that sound insane? Who gets up and says hey lets ride our bikes to that state over there and back? I think I have officially lost my mind. How does one know for sure if they have lost there mind? Short of registering for a 100 mile bike ride. Do you know people do these all the time? They do them for fun! Maybe that is the definition of insane. Well what is done is done and I have 16 weeks...

Ask "the SwimMom" Holiday Edition

One thing that you may not know about me is that in my senior year of high school I worked at Baskin Robins. I scooped, dipped, mixed, and created ice cream concoctions for almost an entire year. It was the best and worst job I ever had. My favorite ice cream desserts were malts. Ummmm!!! That is why when I came across this recipe a few years later I couldn't wait to try it. That is why after I tried this recipe it became one my favorite cookie recipes. Below is the recipe for: "Chocolate Malted Cookies" 1 cup butter-flavored shortening 1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar 1/2 cup malted milk powder 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 egg 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 1/2 teaspoon salt 1-1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chunks 1 cup (6 ounces) milk chocolate chips In a mixing bowl, combine shortening, brown sugar, malted milk powder, chocolate syrup and vanilla; beat for 2 minutes. Add egg. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; gradually...

Come and Gone

Christmas has come and gone the final hours of 2010 has began. I'm sure that I have a 2010 reflection post in me somewhere. But! Our 2010 is ending with family, friends and the baptism of my baby. It is so hard to type that sentence even harder to believe that we are baptizing our last little one. So the end of this year is going to come and go without a reflection post. I have chili to cook and family to visit and.... I did want to share with you a quick look at our Christmas We spent Christmas Eve at Grandma's house. At 80 years old she keeps the party rocking and we enjoy the time we get to visit with everyone. (A quick picture before we left. I try to get this picture every year on Christmas Eve.) Melting snowman was our little Christmas Eve joke since all of our Christmas snow had melted. (The stockings after Santa's Visit) This year we enjoyed a brown Christmas. The snowflakes all disappeared and the hopes of a White Christmas were in vain. ...
