The biggest task I did this week was to paint and finish my bedroom. I had decided to paint it green. While waiting at the store, the previously chosen shade of mellow green fell prey to a long wait and I instead choose a lovely bright green. The name of the paint is granny smith apple, which describes it pretty well.  I’ve lived in rentals for the past five years, so its nice to have a bedroom I can actually paint. I rearranged the furniture as well, and I like the end results. All I want now is a reading chair for the corner.

Life is pretty busy. Always seems to be. My husband went to school about 40 hours and worked 20, and I was still recruiting him for painting and picture hanging. He is such a great guy, never complains about any of it. My sister came down to visit this weekend, and we went to a parade and hiked Battle Creek Falls. She also let me shoot her bow. It was very awkward, and at first I just couldn’t get it. I’m very right eye dominant and had to shoot the bow with my left eye. I had to put a tie over my right eye, but after I did I shot the bow and hit the target. It’s pretty fun.
