The Year Ahead

Hello Friends...I trust the New Year is treating everyone well.  I'm not one for New Year's resolutions, but I do enjoy looking ahead and setting some goals.  After about a year and a half at our now house, I feel as though we've somewhat settled in, but there are many projects to get to around the house.  Repainting is one project, for which we are starting next week, however, I'm still undecided on my colour.  Originally I wanted to go with Benjamin Moore's Coventry Gray, but after doing a sample board, I'm concerned it's just too dark for our living room / dining room space.  So, I'm thinking, the next colour down on the chip, Stonington Gray and Wickham Gray for our hallway area.


This is the Coventry Gray.  Unfortunately I don't have a sample board of the Stonington Gray, but I think I may go with that one.  Here's a link to their sample.

Also on the project list is repainting an old fold down secretary desk and using it in our dining room, as that seems to double best as our office/homework space.  Pictures to follow on once I start that project.

On crochet front, between family and friends, there are some more babies on the way.  So, I've been working on a new blanket...here's a sneak peak in gray again:
