Weeks later the painting is almost complete, one more coat in the hallway and painting has come to an end. Thank God, I have been rolling on walls for what now seems an eternity! The good news is the house is now coming together, it is starting to look like a home and less like a place of transition. Our kitchen is now a beautiful bright Corral, complimented by black and white pictures I took in Cuba and a paddle framing photos taken while kyacking in Algonquin. The hallway and meditation room is a stunning burned orange color called Grounded. The plan for the hallway is for me to paint mother nature tree on the wall and put pictures of our friends and family in the branches. The kitchen is a nice mulled wine and really brightens and warms the kitchen. Finally the living room is a nice bright shade of sunshine, we have complimented the color with natural twig frames and a beautiful bamboo carpet.
There is still so much more that needs to be done but I can finally see the light at the end of the renovations. My partners moods have been steadily improving over the past few weeks, these 4 walls that she has been stuck in within her illness now have a bright, airy comforting feeling, our home is coming together, we are coming toghther, life is moving in the right direction right now. I hope it continues in this direction.
