Wall color

About 15 years ago Joe and I decided to strip the wallpaper and paint the girls room. Now understand though young, we were raising to hard headed females. As we decided this should happen I pictured two walls purple and two walls pink or two walls blue and two yellow. I could not see the two of them agreeing on one color for their room.

I have such a clear memory of being in the aisle of Home Depot with the paint samples. One and I truly don’t know which likes a green color. The second agreed. I stood there dumbfounded until a saner moment happened. Do you like this color? Yes. Turn to the next, do you like this color? Also yes. I all but ran to the paint counter. I want this color. And fast please.

I was positive one or the other would change their mind. I knew once the paint was mixed, sorry too late, no going back.

Fifteen years later, the room is clear of their furniture and belongings. I am know repainting. The green will soon be gone and gray in its place. But I have such a clear memory of two girls in the paint aisle agreeing.
