blue wall, cold season

i don't remember what color blue i was using as a visual aid to the paint on the wall... i don't think it was this one... it doesn't match...

is this one any closer? no... too green. maybe this? no. this? wait.. is this the same one i used above? well anyway, you don't need the font anymore because you've got the pictures. so this is the last of the four colors.

i don't like how stark the window looks up there, so here's a photo from awhile back in the daylight. sometimes the sky is blue like the paint....

lately though it's been gray, or even if it is sunny, it does virtually nothing to warm up this chilly month in wisconsin. i will officially be tired of winter in 2 weeks. i'm willing to give this cold another 2 weeks, but then, enough is enough.
i have a feeling i'm not alone. did you hear about how drivers were stuck on a road in pennsylvania for 20 hours! 20! and passengers were stuck on a plane for 9 hours! all because of this winter weather... (and what sounds like some poor planning on the part of state and airline officials).
anyhow, the frustrating thing: in wisconsin, winter lasts straight through to april. we might get a break here and there, but i swear, those last few weeks of winter last for months. don't ask me how, because i don't know how, but it's true. winter is the most stubborn season of all up here.
sigh.
