Painting and prep

We painted!!! Yayayay! Here are the before pictures:

And here are our after pictures:

We painted one wall in the living room a light forest green color. So the wall in the living room matches the chairs I bought at a garage sale a year ago. (These chairs are so comfy, but they are a psychadelic green/orange paisley/flowers on a black background. $20 for the two, yeah...) And we painted a wall in the office/spare room a light orange color (apricot charm, I believe). I love both my newly painted walls! It makes the rooms seem bigger, which is pretty awesome in our tiny house. I've started to hang up my pictures and get everything where I want it, which is good, since we've been here for 2 months.

I've been trying to keep busy, if I sit around too much, then my mind starts to wander to the surgery and I start to exaggerate things. So, I painted, I started writing out everything and then typing it into a blog, I've been cleaning (always), I've been working on my Thank You's, I've been arranging things, I've been rearranging things, I've been starting to scrapbook things, I've been hanging out with girls from church, and I've been trying to get things ready. Work's been good, i've just been tying everything off, which would be a whole lot easier if they guys wanted to help me out, but they don't.

Everyone's been real helpful and real nice. Things with the surgery are going according to plan, and Februaru 3rd is creeping up soon. But everyone's asking how they can help, and if we need anything. The only thing I'm worried about right now, is if the laundry is clean, and what's for dinner. Things have been going great.

We love and miss you all, and I'm thinking about you. Take care, love always,
