Decision 2010
No I am not talking about the midterm elections, I am talking about paint colors. I currently have nine, yes nine, paint samples painted on the wall. Since I am painting the entire downstairs, except the office, my paint color must look good on many walls so I have nine paint swatches on three different walls and my kitchen island. The guy at Home Depot thinks I am nuts, I have bought nine samplesize paints over the course of one week. I sort of think I am nuts too, but this is a big undertaking so I want to get it right. I am scared to paint but I have watched enough HGTV that I think I can do just about anything. We will soon see. I have been imagining how the living room would look for about nine months now. I lay awake at night thinking about how the living room will look. I am not sure why this has become such a big deal to me but I am sort of obsessed. I think maybe because it is like my office now. I spend so much time there. I also think I like a good project. I like to plan and prep and imagine and create. I am not great at this but I feel like I am getting better at it but most importantly I am enjoying it.

I understand the pressure of the right paint color! Every room we painted always ended with various paint samples from Home Depot, Lowes, and Ace Hardware....then you stare at it at different times of the day and in different light...which to choose and cover an entire wall with!!?? HGTV makes it looks easy!
