procrastinations r us
So instead of doing the umpteen-million things I need to have done around the Doma tonight (which was my excuse for not going out to the apartment and slapping another coat of paint on the bedroom walls), I let the one thing that has been bothering me since I moved in finally hit the nerve.
See, the living room is "technically" white. I say technically because well... mom smoked. Lots. So the walls are actually a beigey color with patches of white where I took pictures down.
At the base of the stairs is a BIG white-ish square on the wall where I took down a large string art thing. The color contrast has been bothering me for months. Today it got on my last nerve. So I dug out the large collage photo frame I bought back in July and the bin of family photos and put photos in frame and hung the frame. No more white patch on wall.
Then I see the small white patches on the wall of the stair well. More photos come out and now I have two walls covered in family photos.
Yes it's something I've wanted to do for a while. But Tuesday before a weekend where i have house guests coming is NOT the time to give into the wanting to hang pictures.
Oh well. I have a couple more days.
