Not quite endless

I only did about 5 impossible things at work this week. Clearly I am a rockstar nonpareil. The end result of course is that, for a change, I am bone-weary.

Once I got home I changed some lightbulbs (so exciting!) because they were of different finishes – apparently one was soft white and the other daylight, which made the bedside tables look a bit annoying. It turns out that since I last bought CFL bulbs the technology has come a long way. Now the bulbs are tiny enough to be hidden by pretty much any lampshade and I’m happy with the end result. The emergence of two new bedside lamps means the two mismatched ones will be relocated. I think it’s time to finally say goodbye to the tall halogen lamp in the corner of the living room.

The house looks a bit weird with all the walls blank. Not exactly blank, mind you, because of all the color but no photos, mirrors or the like. In fact, given the huge space in the middle of the living room/dining room/stairway I’m kind of tempted to leave the walls blank because the color seems to be more decorative now that you can see all of it. I imagine this decision will be debated for months in my head.

The project is winding down. There’s a bit of electrical which is still to be sorted but tomorrow we’ll cut drywall patches, nail in the flooring patch and get ready to paint. Re-paint in some cases but I’m excited to see how it will all turn out.

I’m thinking about participating in NaNoWriMo this year. A story outline is working itself out in my head, I think.
