My Room Is Blue
 

What do you do with seven cats while turning a formerly sorta white
living room a sky blue #2? Well, in out case, we let them stay out and
about while removing most of the furniture in the room (the
entertainment center is too large and flimsy) and washing down the
walls. Then we locked them into Rob's and my bedroom where they could
be either in there or the enclosure. The feline complaints were incredible.

Note to self, the walls are uneven, which is why they were slightly
textured by the builder. Texturing covers a world of errors. We need
more paint brushes for the next room to get de-whitened. Slowly we
turned the room blue. There was surprisingly little blue language from
the humans. Fortunately, we were able to ignore the complaints from the
felines. I suspect that their language was blue, as there was a faint
blue miasma when I opened the door and snuck in there to use the bathroom.

We bought quick drying paint. It was dry in four hours. Impressive.
We agreed that we like the new look in the living room. Total cost of
make-over? About $30, several backaches, and some groans. Now to see
what the critics think. We released the hou--, I mean cats.

They like it!! They really like it! QC went into playful kitten mode,
immediately killing a toy mouse over and over again. Four cats checked
out the new position of the cat construction. Tanada snuck through the
room, hoping that Pine Cone wouldn't notice her. Berfert went outside
into the enclosure.

After checking out the cat construction, Squeakers checked out the
walls. He kept climbing up on the furniture and patting the walls with
his paw. I think he was trying to see if it would attack him, but the
group disagrees with me. They claim that he was bug hunting. Pine Cone
tried to declare himself king of the cat construction. Merlin and Huey
disputed PC's assertion. Cat wrestling at it's finest resulted. QC
lifted her head. Huey froze, giving PC a chance to shove him off the
side of the construction. Merlin took advantage sliding himself on the
top of the construction into the space PC had to leave open in order to
shove Huey. Merlin planted himself in the place of honor. PC gave up
as Merlin is about impossible to budge once he plants himself.

I went to the bathroom. Berfert was coming in from the enclosure. When
I went back, the cats were hanging out in the living room. Huey and PC
were on the construction, Squeakers and Merlin were on the recliner, QC
was getting attention from her Paw, and Tanada was pouting on my rocking
chair. The only cat missing was Berfert. I wasn't surprised; Berfert
hates change in any form. I don't know if he went into the living room,
but he didn't while we were up.

We got to bed around 1:30 this morning. The living room still needs
some pictures and other stuff put into place. However, we did put the
large pieces back and I was able to get the crew to re-arrange the stuff
where I want it. They even like it's new places.

I didn't do as much as the rest of the crew (not enough paint brushes)
but I'm tired, my feet are swollen, and I need a maid. But the living
room is no longer a dirt showing, quasi-sterile, boring white. I want
to do the dining room next. Any color suggestions to go with a dungeon
decor? I'm thinking ice blue, but Rob says "yuk!"

How about pale yellow? That's supposed to "stimulate mental activity",
and IMO helps to make food appear more appetizing. (Maybe not a problem
for you, but I suspect that, with all the medication, Rob may not have
much appetite, but needs his nourishment.)

It must be a psychologically good color! My mom had a new window put in my
old room and ever since that worker left, Tycho and Petrus have been
sleeping in there. I guess reestablishing territory.

I'm nota yellow fan but my friend painted her family room a light buttery
yellow with a petty rich red floral wall paper border and it is so nice and
warm and friendly. I really liked it.
