She has a sandy color and some black highlights on er body, dark brown ears and face -
I thought she was going to be a very big dog for a Peke, but since she has finished throwing up and pooping all day, she seems to have lost a considerable amount of weight and now is back to a good size.
I don't think she is a sickly dog - I just think she overate too much of a new food yesterday. They bought kibbles and bits when they had been feeding her a plain hard food from a pet supply.
Today she is eating and drinking fine. I read that if you let them the pekes will definitely overeat and get fat.
She is doing pretty good with leash training, but when she gets tired she just lays down and you cannot get her to move; have to pick her up and carry her back in at that point.

paint colors..
Go to sites like Lowes.com click project center, interactive disign tools and try Armstrong design-a-room or olympic paint color guide. These will give good tips as well as let you select colors and see them on walls and ceiling to see what they look like.
I recently remodeled. Hubby's childhood home. He had never seen anything but white wall anywhere. I love to cook so afterwards we looked back and paint names were sage, olive, thyme, ginger peach, merlot, moonshine.
They have a paint calculator there as well to make sure you don't over buy, but we did buy extra for later touch ups or "oopses" that happen.
Most stores now have a computer that you can take your pillow sham or comforter in and they can scan the color content and either mix the almost exact color you want or tell you which ones they have in stock that match.
Some recommend mixing paint with your white to match a little closer for ceiling. My ceilings were all ultrawhite. I loved the crisp white feeling. Hubby said looked like crayola box exploded. I figured okay so what if it made it look a little smaller? The room is the same size. (mainly for selling factors). I said if I paint it where it looks big and still stump my toe on furniture what difference does it make, it is still the same size room! But I was happy with my choices.
Screen colors
Back in the day when having a color monitor was a big deal, white on blue seemed to be a standard default (thing WordPerfect for DOS) and worked well. I've also worked on black on blue, black or white on red (until my officemate and boss both asked me to change it because it disturbed them) and black on green. The really old monitors where it was green on black or amber on black worked well, too. Maybe what you really need, though, is to just make the letters bigger. In a Word-type program, making the screen letters (does not affect print output) 130% to 150% of the chosen font size really helps me.
The colors would not be my first choice, but...
I would move into it in a hot New York minute. It beats the baby-puke green house at the end of my cul-de-sac. I think it looks kind of funky and here where I live funky is a good thing. Of course it depends on what part of town you live in too. LOL.
I went with more rich colors in my home
I am not into the lighter colors. I have the white woodwork with white plantation shutters but my rooms are anywhere from cobalt blue (kitchen) to an eggplant in the dining room. Just got new slate in my bathroom with the golds, blues and the like and wondering if I should paint the walls there (this is a fairly new home for me, so doing bit by bit as far as decorating). I have a white bedroom but that may change also (just had new dark blue carpeting put in that room). I always leave my ceilings white. I love my workroom (which used to be a child's bedroom) because I had the room painted a dark colonial blue and it is heaven to work where I love the color so much but then again for once I love all the colors in my home. It was not always like this and I have about 3 gallons of paint in the garage that I tried and just did not like, returned and got another color that I did like. So far 5 rooms painted and counting.
And guests have been wearing colors, etc. for too long

Or netting in school colors like they do for weddings? nm

Good luck but horses don't change colors
I so get not wanting *to leave with regrets* - so do your thing and don't waste the same amount of time you might have prior!!
Next time, don't wear your gang colors and leave
