I love the scent of latex in the morning

We've been slowly making more progress on the home renovations. Two weeks ago, Chris primed the walls in the hallway on his day off, and I put two coats of Pecan Sandie paint on over it over the next couple of days. Sometimes I wonder if I should be embarrassed to admit that I've painted our living room, dining room, and hallways a derivative of "builder's beige", a term I hear used in scornful tones … but our apartment had beige walls, and I thought they looked great with our sofa, so I continued with a similar shade in the house. It's just more mocha than brown … We've even hung a total of six pictures on the walls now!

The middle bedroom is merely a shell of it's former self - goodbye mint green paint, hello canary yellow! (Well actually, hello Wildflower Honey from Behr). We've nearly finished putting on a second coat of new paint, though to be honest, Chris has done the bulk of the work. The colour is fabulous, though - it's like walking into a sunbeam. No child of ours will suffer from seasonal affective disorder during the winter while they reside in there …

If only we could motivate ourselves to do something about the baseboards and door casings ... *sigh*
