Yep, I Missed Four Days

I won't be blogging 365 days this year. I thought it would make me more accountable for keeping a daily record. Then I thought... accountable to whom, exactly? Myself? Whoever it is that reads this thing? Honeychile please - my words are not that important. I have a weird way of taking something fun and turning it into work. You know your pushing it when your frantically searching your life for writing inspiration because it's 11:00 at night and you still haven't posted. Foolish. So, I'm just going to post when I feel like it, just as it should be.

We spent all day yesterday painting our kitchen. Q chose the color, and it's yet another shade of brown. The man is in love with brown. It's not what I wanted, but he loved it and I will just pull in my love of orange, cream, and turquoise for the accent colors.

I bought fabric for curtains today. It's washing up now, and I'll be sewing in a bit.

We were both tired of our circa 1990's brass (blech!) light fixture. Q just wanted to buy a new one and be done with it, but I convinced him to take it down and let me attempt a rehab. I figured if I completely botched it, we could just buy a new one then. I'm refinishing it in a hammered bronze finish. After the first coat, I thought it was wrecked, but it's looking better after a second spray. So we shall see.
