Night one

2007/06/18

My first night in the new place. It's too quiet and doesn't quite feel real. I'm honestly still waiting for something major to go wrong. The new noises are a bit more unsettling than they should be. I wish K was here to share in what should have been a celebratory night. Instead I'm reclining on my love seat, borrowing someone else's wireless connection, blogging. I also wish I had a cat so I could blame it for the strange noises.

Count down to the move

2007/06/07

A week a few days from now I'll be in my new home. Closing was shortly after I got back from Ireland, and since then it's been about packing, and making the place my own. fresh paint in the living room (a warm reddish brown.. it reminds me of chocolate) dining section (part of the living room went with a grayish brown that ended up being much more gray than brown, not sure I'll keep it but looks nice with the brown living room) and main bedroom (planned on nice warm color , but ended up going with "Seven Seas" by Behr a dark blue but not navy). The bedroom blue I wasn't sure about. A few different paint pamphlets had a strong blue with white accents (like this) and some other colors. After it went on the wall I knew I made the right decision. It goes with the wood furniture I have and I'll leave the ceiling white and get white wood blinds. I'm really psyched about it :-). Now what to do with the guest room?
