Downsizing a chart

Sometimes easy, other times a royal PITA.

It takes a while for me to choose the next project.  I have not been feeling up to par, so it's taking even longer.  Out of breath, weak, a little jittery, chest discomfort, no pain.  I suspect a-fib, but my doc no longer does ekg in office, can't get in to cardio.  I had a nuclear stress and echo two years (?) ago, fine.  Improved for two days, now back again.  I may go to urgent care if it worsens and the office can't get me in.

Anyway.

I love this ...

but not its size.  So I reduced 185 stitches to 160 with this layout.  You can't see the actual charting, just the changes. 

The chart did not copy or scan with any clarity so except for two symbols, will need to work from the chart but refer to my copy for placement.  Should be fun.

A decision was made on the painting.  White Dove minus a few drops of yellow.  I've tried numerous options for the cabinets just a smidge darker but it wasn't working.  The same paint in the newly lapped room is quite greenish with lots of natural light.  Maybe the Low-E glass in the windows is the culprit.  So why did I make this decision?  I'm paint weary.  

But I have a plan that will avoid a sterile/boring result.  (You can see the paint change on the ceiling to the WD, the new crown is primed only.)  The two small cupboards on the left of the large one, will have doors removed and walnut stained baskets fit to shelves.  A walnut stained shelf may go above the window between the two cabinets.  With a few darker wood accents, I think it will be good.

I hope the heat will be tolerated and pets offered relief.  Keep a wet towel from the freezer on the back of the neck, it does help.

Stay safe everyone.
