2 walls done

I have now painted two walls in the kitchen "georgia sand." I would take a photo but Steve has the digi camera and he's in Rochester. So you'll have to wait.

I de-glossed one wall twice as the can said to do and then I decided that was bullshit so I didn't de-gloss the other walls twice. So there. It's JUST FINE....and I think I saved a few brain cells in the process. Whew.

It needs two coats...perhaps I'll do coat #2 tomorrow night. Oh and I need to paint the wall behind the fridge (especially the one that shows - ha!) but I can't move the fridge by myself so that will just have to wait. I'm anxious to start priming the cabinets - wheeeee!

I wish I had some ice cream.

Oooh, I'd love to see the photos! It is amazing what a bit of color can do.

and IT'S A GIRL!! I'll do a proper introduction later and the whole story and everything but in the meantime, we had a baby girl. 2:15pm on Friday afternoon (I posted at, what? 10;30am? You do the math!!). Her name is Dahlia Marie and she weighed in at a whopping 6lbs even. 19 1/4" long and so incredibly gorgeous (although, I might be a wee bit biased). The birth was the most amazing experience I've ever been through and my mind is still, well, blown, quite frankly. I am so tired though...time for a quick nap before we try to feed again.

Privacy, please!

Well, the time has come. After 6 1/2 years (!?) Naturally Optimistic will be going private at the start of the new year. If you are interested in still reading my INCREDIBLY exciting posts & commenting on my cute children, email me & I will put you on the invite list. Like I said - it won't happen for another couple weeks, but there ya go. Time to make a change. I'm kind of sad because I've met some cool people - randomly - by having this blog....but the phase of putting all my stuff out there for everyone to read is over. Thanks!
