The car karma appears to be improving… Van Bortel agreed to fix our wagon. ;) The fender-bender will be a little more expensive to fix than we hoped, but it’s still not bad. We got the kitchen finished this weekend – just have a few pictures and things to re-hang. It’s very blue. Which is good – it’s a very nice blue! I finally got the hang of the semi-gloss paint, and managed to even paint the window above the sink without painting it shut – that’s an accomplishment for me. The only problem with the kitchen now is that the paint is much less gray than we expected, so our gray vertical blinds don’t look so great anymore…but they’ll do for now. And I’m re-thinking the burgandy dining room – I don’t think it will flow well from the kitchen. (Which is why I did the kitchen first, after all.) Which leaves me in a quandry, because I can’t really think of another color I want to paint it. I guess I’ll have to wait awhile – it’s a good thing I didn’t start stripping the wallpaper in there…. (Maybe I should rename this blog “Adventures in home ownership – or how to redecorate your entire life”.)
