The Perfect Shade of Gray

it's 12:46 pm and i cannot sleep *sigh* 
i started feeling sick about 10 pm 
(flu like symptoms, hoping it's not the flu)
AND tomorrow is my long day at work.  disasterous!


those who can't sleep: blog, right?!? well, i'm hoping it'll be my remedy...
First off, I heard a song today that I want to use as a lullaby for the baby.... its lyrics are beautiful.  i'll share a snippet with you:


When you walk through a storm
Keep your chin up high
And don't be afraid of the dark
At the end of the storm, is a golden sky
and the sweet silver song of a lark


-Rodgers & Hammerstein, 1945

are those lyrics not beautiful?

... moving on...

I started on my first project for the nursery today!! I saw that canvases were 40% off at Michael's and lo & behold! I need canvases for the nursery!!! so, i went and bought six (two different sizes)... i've painted them the perfect shade of gray (but not without my mask with its very own ventilation system!!) and will be adding these incredibly beautiful and ethereal white tree and bird decals (hopefully tomorrow)... it will take up most of my one blank wall... the vision in my mind is soft, sweet, serene & sophisticated. (that's a lot of 's' adjectives).... here are some pictures of my progress... stay tuned to see the final product!!! i think you'll love it

Blank Canvases                   Me & my ventilated mask! no fumes for me!


    the perfect shade of gray       finished with my second coat!

okay, it's now 1:09 a.m.  i'm gonna go see if sleep will accept me... night night!
