This is SO weird. I'm updating from Irwin's laptop which is currently wirelessly on my home network. Meaning it doesn't have any wires going to or from it and its just picking up the signal from my router. Totally weird. I feel like all these signals flying around my house are going to give me cancer or something. But its just RF. We have RF all around us every day. No problems yet. Weird. I have to encrypt everything, though, because Irwin says I should worry about someone parking in front of my house and "stealing" my bandwith wirelessly.

So, we primed the dining room tonight. I'm kind of disturbed, as the primer appears darker currently than the planned light blue that is going to go above the chair rail (I'm going light blue above the rail and dark blue below the rail).

What do you think? Advice ASAP (call me!).. I was hoping for a more subdued grey tone, perhaps, or at least a formal blue. Also it is much darker than I was planning for the area above the chair rail. Irwin and I have pretty much decided to continue painting as planned tomorrow and if we still don't like it, well, then, there's always white and try again..

We're doing the study in a complimentary purple color. Sarah's choice. Honestly I didn't know what to do with the study and didn't have any strong preferences, so something vibrant seemeed to be a good idea for a fun room. Anyway, look how many books I have. Weird.

And here is my little worker bee, Irwin, masking tape the walls. I'm sorry, Irwin prefers to be called the "Tape Master".

And here is Apache who has been exiled to the backyard for the duration of painting, because, well, I really don't want little black hairs on my pretty walls.

And for future reference for decorating advice..
