Uh oh to Oh YEAH! My love story about "oops" paint!

 So, I ran down to my local hardware store to pick up a gallon of this amazing paint color I dreamed up in my head.  The inspiration was a way-too-expensive wallpaper I found on the internet.  A dark olive with brownish undertones.  It was going to be perfect on the wall behind my fireplace (which was the only remaining blue wall in my "Coastal Fog" colored living room...that had thus taken me three years to paint.  I average a wall per year.)  Anyhoo, I excitedly walked into the store and headed for the paint chips!  But, alas!  How could it be?  There was NO SUCH COLOR!  What was I going to do?  Obviously, I was going to do what I usually do in the first place...look for the oops paint.

A little bit about me...

Hey y'all!  I'm sorry I'm so sporadic with my posts.  Life is busy, as I'm sure you all know.  Anyway, while I've been absent, I had the amazing opportunity to catch up with my friend Dana Ellis!  She is a talented photographer, and God uses her to do some truly magnificent things.  One of the ministries she has been working on has been to share Transformation Reports about "women whose lives have been radically changed by God."

It's my responsibility to share it!  May you all be blessed!  Oh, and shout out to Dana for those amazing photographs!  I felt so pretty!!!  :D Click the link below to redirect to her blog and read my testimony.  While you're there, stick around and check out her amazing talents a
