In need of a holiday...

I don't know about you all, but the heat and end-of-summer doldrums have me in such a lackadaisical mood. You know my honeymoon I was super pumped about Tuesday?? Well, I'm still excited about it, but I'd be even more excited if I were leaving tomorrow!

My wedding is 3 months and 1 day away! I'm not sure if it's the fact that I've been planning for so long that I have much of it taken care of, the heat, or what, but my lazy mood has left me totally uninspired to think of wedding stuff much. I know this will pass, and with the weekend coming up I'm sure to be in a better mood, but for now.... boo.

On a positive note, after reading Joni's post on this FAB house in Galveston (seriously, if I could afford it, this would be my house!), it kind of affirmed my idea in my head for a paint color for my living room. It's a color called "Silver Sage", and I've been a big fan for about 11 years now. I have used in many past apartments, condos, lofts.... but haven't used it in this present house. I think it will work, and I'm going to buy a test pot over lunch today to splash on the walls tonight. Chris is going to want to smack his head - he thinks I'm crazy half the time, but it's the only way to REALLY get an idea of what it'll look like. Plus, if I don't like it, I still have leftover paint of the color that's on the walls now, so I can paint over the swatch.

Go check out the house she profiled here.


And here is a picture of the dining room that shows the color I speak of:


Hope you all have a great Thursday!!

Oh, and if you're in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, feel free to come and kick my butt out of this funk!

I took a month off from planning and it was fabulous. Don't beat yourself up about. I'm sure it will pass quickly!

Yay for DFW brides! We're getting married there in April. I feel the funk all the time about weddings. I often have to tell myself not to talk about it with everyone I know. I remind myself "shut up, they don't care about what color the paisleys are on your save the dates" ugh!
