The Mama Files: Paint

So I have ideas coming out my ears for the new house.
***Hurry up lawyers!***
I'm a person who can visualize things very very easily (it was passed down to me from my mother). In my head I have my first 2 smallish painting projects all figured out and I am itching to get in there and get to work (instead of this boring job of sorting and packing boxes).
Have I mentioned I'm very goal oriented and not very patient?! :-)
I WAS thinking about painting the dining room beige, don't worry I came to my senses before any paint was purchased! I don't want to ruin all my fun (the big reveal!), but I will tell you this; one room is going to be purple and one orange! :-) Are you scared?! Now don't give me that "you're painting what black?!" look! You'll see, it'll be great! I can't wait to show you...it could be a while though. (Sigh) Hurry up lawyers! I'm ready to move!

The Start of Something New


Our tentative closing date is June 17th, but our Realtor says it could be as early as June 10th. THAT IS 2-3 weeks from last Friday!
Yikes! I have so much to do!

Hush Little Baby- The Leia Version

"When that charming bracelet breaks, mama will buy you a stuffed animal.

When that stuffed animal breaks, mama will buy you a ring.

When that ring's stone pops out, mama will buy you a teddy bear.

When that teddy bear's stuffing comes out, mama will buy you a whole basket of toys.

When that basket and the toys all break.

You're still the sweetest baby in town."
