Following J.O.Y.... still

makes me tired. but it's worth it. i ran all over town today and had a good time doing so. i started painting the kitchen sage colored like the office and the living room accent wall. it is going to look good, i think. 

and i painted the original mail box that goes with this house a dark copper/ brown color. i hope it will look okay in the entry of the kitchen. 

i just started the trimming out of the kitchen, but i do enjoy rolling so it won't be a big deal. omgosh the ceiling needs painted really badly. i will have to do it . maybe i will get anna to help me... but it is SO dingy and bad. i got a new kitchen ceiling 
"farmhouse" styled light fixture. it will look nice. it will match the backsplash and the mail box. 

hubs and i went to Lowe's and looked at galvanized steel. we are going to maybe try to put it in ourselves. i think it will look awesome in the kitchen. and help it look very "farmhousey".... 

i will work just a little at a time. that's the only way i can do it... but that's okay. at least i'm very happy. i'm always happy when i am creating something... sewing, painting, playing music, ... traveling... doesn't matter. i am happy. 

so... 

following joy.... it makes me feel alive.
