The Day After

This is the sample on the wall of our color choices for the guest bedroom. i used a shiny light on it to make the colors look better in the camera :)
here are the same colors using the overhead light. (shout out to my hunny - i think the colors are going to look good actually. i wondered about the teal. tho it may still be a bit dark - we will see how it all comes together.) is that really a pink wall!!?? this pict sure looks pink. it is tan here in real life...
now for the couch project - i have run out of staples. (turned out there were only 8 - 9 in the stapler, only a bit of a set back.....) foam is attached with some crummy adhesive, and no it did not stick like i thought it would.
i am trying to find some linens that feel luxurious and will be nice in our room. still lots to consider - but this is what i picked out today. checking with the man before making the final decision.
so it is the day after halloween - anyone feeling that crashing down feeling after consuming way too much sugar?? anyone, anyone at all....
ok, so not me - i'm coming down from all the coffee i have been drinking since my fav Master's Touch coffee arrived. the best stuff ever, shout out to borris and his family. check this out - best coffee ever - yeah.
sooo i have been overdosing (would that be what it is called when speaking of coffee??) on the caffeine stuff - and some decaf in the evenings, when i am feeling social (what the heck do i mean by social???!! i think i mean when i want to stay up but don't want to HAVE to stay up..) - i can feel the effects and i think i need to sleep for a few days now. my sweetie is off tomorrow so i am hoping we can sleep a bit. (fat chance - do you know how long my 'catch up' list is now....) speaking of my catch up list - i am speaking of it now, keep up - the trim is still not attached to the wall but is laying against it.. still. sweetie worked till around 11.30 or later, i quit looking at the clock finally. and... i think there was something i wanted to finish with the couch project - oh yeah... I'M OUT OF STAPLES. who would have thought to check the stapler!!!? i was sure the staples were located somewhere here - probably in a box that is under five other boxes. what kind of lame person would start a project w/o the supplies needed??? (sheepish grin here, or more of a grimace. i am STILL shopping for stuff to make this project work.) i may not be quite so daunted anymore - or i may still be - not sure at this point BECAUSE I NEED MORE SUPPLIES. sheesh, now i know why recovering a couch takes longer than first anticipated. see, it should take two years....

i woke up around 5 am - ok, so the cat woke me around 5 am (he is sitting here on the desk in my arms, kinda, yawning...) and i think i managed to pretend i was sleeping 'till around 7. took the man to work and then came back to reheat my awesome cup of coffee, and plot my driving directions. love that i can type in my home address and any address anywhere in the world! and find the best way to get there. is the system not the best?? i went to big lots and bought three bookcases - much cheaper and quicker (labor wise) (well actually we shall see - it may take me three days to figure the instructions and actually put them together correctly. i have the tendency to rush ahead and have to redo steps. once or 15 times...) soo assuming it is quicker and more cost effective, i bought the bookcases. then headed to a place called garden ridge and bought the bed ensemble. (don't really know if i truly like the ensemble, and there are pieces missing. most likely i am taking it back - how can you forget to put pieces in the ensemble kit??? i mean the items are listed right on the package!!!)

shoot i am tired. i may cut this one short - is it short? i seem to be able to ramble the more tired i get.

HOW COULD I FORGET - sandy, here is a shout out to you. thanks for commenting on my blog. got your email too. thank you mucho. i really do look forward to hearing from you.

have a blessed night all.
