Yesterday was just one of those days. Minor irritations piling on minor irritations...work, trying to leave work, evening... They WERE minor irritations however so I can't really complain.....but GEESH. Today started with frantic searching for items that Leo could take with him for his speech class since we realized the printer was out of ink after I got up 20 minutes late.
However.... Everyone seems to be healthy, it is Thursday and I am going to see Justin Townes Earle tonight.
YES.
Last night I got home feeling frazzled. My eyes were watery from allergies and tired from being on the computer all day. I greeted the boys, said hello to Leo's friend who was hanging out with him. I wandered into the bathroom to admire it and stood there kind of lost in end of the day tiredness. Ernie walked into the bathroom and stood in the little nook where the stacked washer and dryer are going. He looked at me seriously and then he started pivoting and making washer sounds. I laughed and laughed. I love him so.
He said he'd get me a glass of wine so I wandered outside and sat in the yard. He came out, we talked a minute and then he said, "come see something." I obediently followed and as we went upstairs I got excited because I knew he'd said he was going to get the bedroom ready to be painted. I walked in and he'd ALREADY PAINTED IT! I was so overwhelmed with happiness!
And Peggy Matusiak Johnson...you were right! Silver Fox by Benjamin Moore. It's like a mood ring of a color....kind of changes with the light and the colors by it....from grey to green to taupe back to grey.....it's LOVELY.
