Color choice

As I finished up a work week from hell, I turned my attention to preparing for my impending hermitage. In honor of my memorable experience with percoset, and sure that I will be on some sort of pain reliever for a few days, I took my walk this evening to Home Depot, to buy a quart of paint for my front door. How did I decide on a color. Well, if you read the entry from a few days ago, I was thinking I should be guided by the grey/green shingles on the roof. So I took a picture of my roof on my cell phone and carried it to Home Depot to match up the color. I should do less visual matching and go by the color names on the chart. I picked Southampton Green - a dark grey/green. Southampton is probably a good colonial color choice. We'll see how I like it once it is on the door. My neighbor will probably hate it as she hates all change. SHe also doesn't like dark colors. I'll have to see how it looks with the roofing and the jungle in the front yard. One good thing about paint, you can always change it. And now that I have the paint, the painkillers will probably make me sleep and I won't get around to painting the door. This is the way life goes! Somethinga bout best laid plans...
