Pinterest - my love/hate relationship!
I am a newbie to Pinterest! I thought I wouldn't like it. It sounded stupid...blah blah blah. I finally decided to check it out. It's actually pretty addicting. Which is great because I needed another way to ignore and neglect my kids for long periods of time, Facebook just wasn't doing it anymore. I am in love with it. So many good ideas that I just wanna try out, like right now well the kids are still up running around screaming but , really whats the worst that can happen. For starters yesterday I saw a couple things that needed a glue gun, long story short I burned my finger. Today, I wanted to do a little project on Harmony's wall. Now I am not a complete idiot, I had a back up plan. I would just use the spare paint in the garage to paint over it, if it didn't turn out. I didn't like it. It was too dark. I could have made it look nice and work but I changed my mind. I started scrubbing it off enough so I could re paint the light yellow. I grabbed the spare paint, opened it up, dipped in my brush and one second before I went to paint it on the wall I noticed that it was the yellow for the kitchen not Harmony's room. Crap, I checked every left over paint can and not one matched hers. *&%#% Now What?? I start scrubbing harder and most of its off but not it looks horrible. I then had a stroke of genius. Thank God for Magic Erasers. It completely took it off. The yellow looks a little worn, but I will put up a picture or something. Our House Warming is on Sunday and since the yellow was painted by the previous owners there was a slim to none chance of matching the paint, and I would have had to find a giant picture or cancel the party. I have now learned my lesson. Don't paint on the walls. Its a bad idea! I now hate pinterest. I am tired and grumpy and have no interest in pinning anything...well at least not for a few hours anyway.
