The Ink-Pot and the Palette

So very true about LEDs. I've found that a mix of cool white and warm white helps, but what helps even more than that is retirement: I'm virtually always able to pick out my clothes in daylight--and it doesn't much matter what I wear anyway!

I had a stern talk with myself early in the project about cheaping out on small things--like, trying to save a few bucks by not having the electrician put in quite so many outlets and fixtures. Penny-wise and pound-foolish. Once I'd agreed to the tearing-off of the plaster walls, anything that needed to happen inside those walls was going to be a lot cheaper before the sheet rock went up!
