Let's all pause just a moment for a prayer, shall we? Thank you, Jesus, for giving me a brain so that I could figure out that marrying a man who hates old houses, calls me by his ex-wife's name, and goes through a one-liter bottle of Ten High Bourbon in three days would have been a terrible, terrible mistake from which I might never have recovered. Amen.
Anyhow, as I was cramming all that stuff back into the bag I was thinking about how much I like that color combination. Pale turquoise and a clear red is such a lively, pretty combination. It's a shame I don't have anywhere in the house I could use that.....or do I? What if I repainted the yellow kitchen? Would it look good with the red-and-white chicken wallpaper? Turquoise might not look good with the green table and chairs, but I've been wanting to repaint them anyway. I bought them online and the description said "distressed"--in reality, it looks like a wolverine clawed the table legs and the chair backs. I painted the kitchen yellow back when the outside of the house was still covered with yucky brown shingles and I was dying for some color. Now that the outside of the house is yellow, this is a bit too much yellow for me. What do y'all think? Pale turquoise? Robin's egg? Stupid idea?
