I slept well last night. I didn't wake up with lower back pain, but did with slight shoulder pain again, though mild. Maybe I'm finally mastering how to deal with my firm mattress.

Yesterday, I encouraged Hubby to start planning where he'll hang some art in his office. We picked out the pieces and locations. He had been quite down, mood-wise, and I knew that project would life his spirits. He struggled a little with one wall, but hung his first two. It's amazing what a difference it made. Institutional-looking room to the start of an art gallery! At night, he put on a certain lamp for the first time. It was right next to the wall with the newly hung art. Suddenly I noticed something quite strange on the white walls around them. "What is that? It looks like a leaf...and branch!" I then showed Hubby what I saw. I then looked a little to the left and saw A GIRAFFE. OMG! We have a hidden jungle on the one wall! I guess it used to be a kids room that had a jungle scene painted on it. They painted over that with white paint. It hadn't been visible at all (for all these weeks) with just the ceiling light on. Just with the one lamp next to that wall. Hubby says he doesn't mind. It doesn't affect the look that much, but I was laughing awhile, afterwards, especially since one painting there is a religious one, and the other my mother-in-law.
