Yesterday, Heather helped me pick out colours for the living room and bedroom of the house I am moving into at the end of August. My new landlord gave me the okay to paint, and he is actually paying for the paint, so woohoo! I can go in whenever I want between now and move-in day, so things will be nice and painted before I move my masses of junk in.
The bedroom is going to be a warm yellowish colour, with a slightly darker 'feature wall' behind my headboard. The living room is ... I can't even describe it - kind of a brown, with a darker brown on the chimney. My choices were kind of limited by the crazy hideous burnt orange carpet that is all over the house. I don't know if the landlord plans to take that out when he moves back to town in two years, but I am definitely not up to the task at present. So no red walls for me ^_^
I will be jazzing the place up with exotic curtains made of sari silk and perhaps some decorative throw pillows. Hooray for eBay.
It's funny - I am becoming so totally bushed. Being in Whitehorse for more than three hours gets me on edge. Today was particularly bad - everyone was grocery shopping, there were only two cashiers, and the lines were heinous. I only managed to keep from going postal by reciting "Grow from love, accept from love," every time some kid who shouldn't have been in control of cart cut me off.
Now I'm going to eat licorice and watch movies.
