"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!

At my Age

I saw this quote the other day and had to smile. It has been interesting finishing school at my age. I have had this feeling more than once that I am a little old, and finishing school is something I should have done a long time ago. Usually I remind myself that we all have our own paths to take in life. My path had me marry at 19 and become the mother of four beautiful rug rats by 27. Marriage and children defined me more than anything. I became more aware of my talents and abilities. I really didn't know who I was before I became a wife and mother. Waiting until now to finish my degree gave me time to figure out who I am. Well, at least to have a better idea of who I am. I love being in a classroom, I love learning, and I love helping others learn. My inner nerd does little happy dances every time I learn something new. Each person on this planet has their own God given talents. We have a responsibility to find our talents and to make the world a better place. How old you are wh...

Pinewood Derby or Bust!

If there is one thing that Brent and I both agree on.  One thing that we both believe is essential to the proper development, growth, and raising of a son. That no boyhood would be complete with out.  It would be participation in the Pinewood Derby.   Yes, on this one thing Brent and I are in total agreement.  A boyhood is not a true boyhood until a boy has built a pinewood derby car and then competed in a pinewood derby.  It is that important!  I'm sorry if you have never had the opportunity to live in a house filled with the air of pinewood derby. If you have never had the opportunity of watching a father stand to the side as his son uses HIS power tools. The opportunity to take a chunk of wood and see that inside the wood is the makings of a CAR.   You wonder why men are so obsessed with cars, with how there made, and how fast they go.  Well if you have ever brought home a pinewood derby box kit to a home with boys and men all your questions would be answered. Once the car is b...

The Kids Today

S. is now 11 years old and is counting down the days until she turns 12. She is in the fifth grade and says math is her favorite subject. She stays pretty busy with swimming and soccer. This past year in addition to a regular AYSO team she has been competing on an All Star Team. She has really enjoyed it and is really looking forward to a tournament that will take place in Hawaii this July. She still loves swimming and is still competing when she can. A. is 9 years old and is the professor of the house.  He is our silent man whose brain is in constant motion.  He reads and reads and reads and soon will read me out of house and home.  He enjoys video and computer games, and he loves playing sports.  In January he made the city swim team and continues to play soccer, basketball, and anything that I let him.  Al will soon be eight.  As in next week soon.  The best part of school she says is 3:25 when pressed for a better answer than that she say...
