Monday Moment

 Quick Monday moment.
But first, back up to Friday - glorious day. Worked hard and we all got early dismissal - "just because it's too pretty out there".  I came home and our new diving board had been installed. The pool project is complete. New stone coping, new plaster, new board. Now we need some warmer weather. It was darn pretty out, but I'm not a polar bear swimmer.  Instead I raked gobs of leaves - our live oak is shedding its winter coat and green is popping out all over.
Saturday  - leaf project was done. Now on to my painting project in my pretty room (i.e. reading, no TV). New furniture arrived. I had put primer on my accent wall.  Now what color....our house leans toward muted colors. Time for a Wow! moment.  I went with "Exotic Sea". Sure pops, doesn't it?

So, guess I'm good for another twenty years (rather lazy, not big on tons of changes here)

Clear blue water under the diving board, blue exotic sea on the wall........I"m not feeling blue. I'm spring energized.  Happy start to the week.

    It does pop.
    Pool will be ready when it's warm enough.

    Beautiful colour! That pool looks delicious. We're getting horrible cold, raw, wet, windy weather all this week.

      thanks. Blue is my color, but never this bold for a wall. Puts a spring in the step

    Having the pool ready beats not having it ready and waiting after it gets warm

      yep plus worker bees have more time and they charge a bit less $$ during "off" season

    It wasn't your diving board (which does look very nice) but that blue that caught my eye as soon as I saw this post. I LOVE that exotic sea. Good choice, Joanne.
    Have a warm-loving week.

    I dunno if you noticed, but at least in the photos, the color of your accent wall and the color of your pool water look one and the same. How cool is that?

    Gee, with your decorating prowess, you may have a future at HGTV. :) (I never even heard of an accent wall until we started watching some of those shows!)
