I'm moving

I've been hesitant to say the words "I'm moving" just yet for fear it would change (I think I specialize in complicated lately) but I'm feeling more confident about it today. Hopefully, Loki will let this one slide.

This is going to be my kitchen. I painted it brown once upon a time but I think something new is in order. We're considering a buttery yellow where it's currently brown and a green for the areas that are white (both in the kitchen and into the family room behind). It would be something like the last image below (courtesy of the Sherwin Williams visualizer) What'dya think? Any suggestions?

This is the family room that would be green:

Loki's back

Haha! Now I KNOW Loki is messing with me and my coffee! But I have outsmarted him this time because I have no less than 3 coffee cups at work.

(in a mad-scientist voice) Not this time Loki... not this time...

That's sad...

Isn't it ironic that the time you forget to put the cup under the spout before pushing the brew button is when you actually needed the coffee? Sigh...

If you could be a superhero...

I love that she looks like she's flying!

I have a ton of work to get done, both in my personal and professional lives, in the next couple of weeks. So, I'm channeling superhero now as I seem to get the most done that way. An old boss once said I must have an "S" on my chest and I wonder if I can get that "get it done" attitude going now. I'm thinking "DIY Girl" or "Get 'er Done Diva".

What would be your superhero name?

Rock hunting

We spent yesterday out at Crystal Peak. It used to be a quartz crystal mine for the US military (quartz crystal vibrates at a good frequency for radio communication) beginning in 1940 and mined off and on until the early 70s but the area is now maintained by the Forest Service as a recreational site. It's a fun place to go crystal hunting and I found 3 or 4 pinky sized crystals yesterday in addition to all of the lovely crystals and other rocks pictured above (I LOVE the heart shaped quartz!). There are also beautiful views in every direction which makes it a lovely place to sit and read.
