Dear mommy dearest,

<begin vent>  

The reason we have not started painting the nursery is NOT because "DH is lazy and doesn't want to do it" or that "we don't know what we're doing", it's because we (1) have just recently found the paint colors that we liked after trying 8 samples, (2) hadn't got the room completely cleared, because its now full of baby shower gifts from the shower this past weekend (you know, the one you didn't want to go to, nor brought a gift to when you did decided to show up-LATE) and (3) Because I wanted to get the chest of drawers painted before we started on the room (you know, the furniture I've been asking you and dad to help paint for the past three months?)  Yes, DH could have done it; That is if he wasn't tired from working 60+ hours a week so that we could keep a roof over our heads and food in the fridge.  I think you should cut DH some slack and stop being so judgemental. 

<vent over/>  I need a mojito :(

Re: Dear mommy dearest,

  • Moms can be very opinionated, even if they mean well. What color(s) did you end up choosing?

  • Yeah, I guess you're right;  Thanks :)  She just knows how to make me upset without even trying...

    We are going with Behr Celery Sprig (top 3/4 of wall) and Behr  Kashmir Pink on the bottom 1/4.  For the stenciling, I'm just going to use the rest of the sample of Behr- Snow White's Song since the samples had pretty generous amounts in them.

  • Mothers! Angry

    However, your colors sound beautiful!!

    That really does sound so pretty. I can't wait to see pics! I love light pink and green; they were our wedding colors.
