Just Not So....for now

I recently found out that I will be waiting another year to attempt acceptance into the Radiography program. It's been a little disappointing. Since I began the program I knew this particular point would be the most uncertain since there are only 20 students accepted each year. I am like a sitting duck for another year - sitting figuratively; there's plenty to keep busy with in the meantime... Immediately I'm desperate to start a new project, but I have a house full already. I don't know what has come over me, but suddenly the walls are like the next best thing to a big expensive canvas and I wanna' paint! I'm not a painter so I don't know what the heck I'm thinking, but it might get a little interesting in here in the next couple weeks. I gave up dying my hair almost a year ago. I used to change the color and cut every 6 months. I think the change itch is now coming over me in a new way. I like the fact that if I goof up the wall I can easily start over - an immediate forgiveness to my fear of self-made disaster. I should keep the wall color on hand so I can do all this before Adam gets home from work. The kids will still rat me out: "Mommy painted this ugly thing on the wall!" So far I've painted the kitchen and a faux brick portion of the wall under the counter. I don't have any new ideas yet.
