Decorating Advice and Paint Colors

BHG.com has a new free decorating visualizer just for window treatments.  Man, I wish that visualizer was actually a word, but I suppose that I’ll just keep saying it like it is a word, & hope for the best. It only took me about three hours to figure out that very few window treatments look good on french doors.  However,  it was a lot of fun.  It’s definitely interesting to try out as you can change the color of the walls, the color of the windows, & even the patterns. Window treatments can be a big investment if you are doing several rooms, but it  makes any room feel more like home.

If you work from home, I really do think that you need to have blackout blinds in your bedroom. Most of us work very late at night, I don’t know why that always seems to be the case with IT people. I guess because we like to work on our sites when the rest of the world is sleeping. That way, if we accidentally “break” something, we still have plenty of time to fix it before most of the world sees it.

However, this often means that the sun wakes up before I do. This means that my last few hours of sleep are quite fitful as the sun passes across my face. I could change all of this if I just had blackout blinds. It really is a decorating must.

I love my home office. I spent a lot of time decorating it just so. My only complaint is that I always seem to be in here. It doesn’t even seem like I can get through a movie unless I watch it in this room. My work is definitely starting to suffer because I have “blogging fever”, like cabin fever, except with a blog. Even if I make a lot of money, my friends don’t seem to remember who I am.

When I try to work on a different computer, I find out that I’m addicted to bookmarks, & can’t remember the url’s that I need in order to do my job. I start missing my home computer. This is why RemotePC is so cool, you can access your home computer from anywhere you have an Internet connection & it’s just $4.95 a month, & there’s even a free thirty day trial. This costs a lot less than gotomypc, it’s compatible with Vista & 10 users can share the same desktop. I definitely need to consider remote access so that I can actually go outside again. This way I can have a life to actually blog about.
