Date Night: More Paint

We had a date night which included dinner at a nice seafood place and a trip to Home Depot. We're planning another improvement while we're away at the beach. [For my money, that's the best way to do it. Give the contractor carte blanche at our place and come home to a new whatever.] We purchased a new Hunter ceiling fan for the living room. Last week, we also tried a paint [light beigey tan] which wound up being just blah, and very reminiscent of the original shade the house was everywhere when we moved in 11 years ago. The kamikaze mixer gal gave us a shade just darker than the one we tried last week, but not as dark as the next swatch up. We'll see how this one looks. I want it to actually look like there's a color, but not be as deep a tan as Zeke's room. Who knew that selecting paint could be so difficult? I chose all the other colors based on the small swatch and am happy as can be with them. But this time, it's a little harder than matching a stripe in my comforter or a flower in the border print. This time, it's just beige.
