Let Me Introduce Myself...

My subtle way of saying, "It's been a long time...too long!". I know, I know...I had these grandiose ideas of writing every day and using this outlet to vent steam from a hectic day, to sort out all the thoughts and ideas that swirl around in my head...so what have I been doing?! Yah, I got nothin' for ya. Well, there's stuff, but it doesn't really seem to be blog worthy.

However, when I walked in the house today, not only did my nostrils fill with the unmistakable fumes of paint but my eyes rejoiced with how our house has magically transformed into a home with just one coat of warmth! I was nervous coming home today. We're having our house painted today and tomorrow. They said three days but I think they'll be done tomorrow. So back to being nervous...we picked just one colour to paint our house - no feature wall, no fancy painting effects, just one colour and I thought it'd be too dark. Don't know why as we picked the colour from a show home we'd been in so we'd seen it on a big wall. But you know when it's your home, you just don't want to screw up! Anyway, it's weird, cuz it's quite a bit darker but it doesn't look dark! We're excited to get the furniture back in place and to re-decorate! We want to change it up a bit. We like projects!

My reflections on my blessings - I need to remember that I have a lot of wonderful people in my corner cheering me on! You have all helped me deal with the day-to-day stresses of work and life in general and without your support, I probably would be a flat splat on the bottom of someone's shoe right now but I'm not! Keeping my head up, my mouth shut and I'm hanging on tight!!!
