Hello bloggers, I hope you have had a fairly good week! I know I have!
I have wanted to paint my room for a really long time! Almost 3 years now. I have wanted to paint it lime green. Green is my absolute favorite color. My parents have painted my older sisters (only one older siter not multiple older sisters. I am in the middle of three girls) room 2 times now, so I figure, it MY turn. I have begged and pleaded and still my mom would always say that her room gets painted first. So Sears was having a paint sale and my mom found some she liked for her, so I asked if they could buy me some paint. My mom said that we were NOT painting my room, end of discussion. But my dad said if I bought my own paint, primer, rollers, and tarp I could paint my room. So I went to my bank. AKA family bank ( they always come to me when they need money. HA) I had about 82 dollars not counting the money my parents owed me for mowing and allowance. (Now I know, mowing?! Yes I mow my family's yard every Saturday. We have no boys besides my dad and he cant be in the sun for very long because of his skin cancer on his neck, so I get the lovely pleasure of waking up early on Saturday mornings and working up a descent sweat. )
Now Sears didn't have the right color that I wanted, so we went to Walmart, they had 2 pretty good colors that I liked and my mom told me I had to get a fairly light one. So I ended up having to compromise, but hey its way better than nothing. So I bought the paint "Green Tomato". Well actually with the money my parents owed me I didn't have to pay a cent! So we are painting my moms and dads room this weekend and we are painting mine in 1-2 weeks! Cant wait! I have waited long enough. But we have to take my paint back and get a new one because they gave us Semi-Gloss instead of Satin. But hey it'll all work out. And I am thrilled that I finally get to paint my room. Its gonna be sooo great!

Guess what?? I'm the middle of three girls, also! So- we middle kids- we have a LOT in common.
I'm excited about your room! I love green too. My living room is painted a sagey green color. Maybe you can post some pics when you're done!
