The decorating...

I am feeling so good about this whole project right now. I want to record this so that when I get frustrated, I can come back and read it and remember that it is good.

Turns out that Dinah the painter of my walls is also Dinah the muralist! And I want a mural painted in my nook that we are building in the front room - I am going to get her to paint me a window so my window seat will have a window!

Sheri found me the perfect bed yesterday. At a small local chain and they have them in stock and it's perfect. And she found the cutest little bench to sit at the end of the bed (for the laying out of tomorrow's clothes or the putting on of socks) and a very nice buffet/console/storage unit for the front hall.

I was not wild about the desk and the media stand and some of the other bits she found but we are getting closer and I am believing. Mostly, I am just so grateful to have Sheri. She is such a hard worker and so willing to do and try and figure stuff out. And I know now for certain that when she says 'oh we'll find the right thing' or 'oh, we'll figure it out in plenty of time', it will happen just like she says. I would never be able to do this without her.

Today is green. Dinah is doing the hallways, one of the bedroom walls, one of the walls in the front room, and I forget where else. Yesterday's purple is just beautiful. I can't wait to see what today's green looks like!
