Wall Mural

I am doing a mural wall in the bedroom, and I am taking my inspiration from this picture below. If anyone would like to contribute ideas - or a skillful hand, , I'm open for advice.



The walls are blue at the moment, and I want to do the detail in chocolate brown and accents with tan; maybe a few accents in a persimmon colour I have around also.

Lucky Wishes

I need all the good thoughts, magic voodoo, prayers, in-thought-of-you candles, etc I can get. I have a job interview tomorrow - whether I get a job offer is all that stands between my husband and I.

On Tuesday it'll have been a month since I've seen him.

Día de la Lluvia

It has to be said, that the smell of rain before it falls is divine. I didn't realize I'd missed it so much until today.


On another note, I haven't quite found a job yet. I'll hopefully find something soon, I miss having mi amore around. I set the limit that if I haven't found something suitable at the end of this month then I'll start looking in the other less desirable areas I have experience in.

I have been thinking of what courses I'm wanting to take, and how I'll be able to coordinate working full time and doing schooling at the same time. I think I'll have to meet with an admissions/course counselor to make sure everything will work out. I'm looking at a BS in Computing Sciences, and eventually I'll go for my Masters. I figure I'll have to do everything slower, but oh well, schooling is schooling.

I've been painting up a storm since getting here, which has been quite fun. I'll post pictures of how good it looks once we have the furniture up. I also rejuvenated a pair of frames that mum bought awhile ago - now they're a sleek and sexy black, I can't wait to find some cute b/w photos to go in them.

Time for me to go to el mercado!
