I find it hovering in the dining room, skulking in the parlor, hiding in the hall, lying in wait for me on the stairs. It gets into my hair. I FIND IT HOVERING IN THE DINING ROOM SKULKING IN THE PARLOR HIDING IN THE HALL LYING IN WAIT FOR ME ON THE STAIRS IT GETS INTO MY HAIR
telling him it was because of the wallpaper—he would make fun of me. He might even want to take me away. I don’t want to leave now until I have found it out. There is a week more, and I think that will be enough. I’m feeling ever so much better! I don’t sleep much at night, for it is so interesting to watch developments; but I sleep a good deal in the daytime. In the daytime it is tiresome and perplexing. There are always new shoots on the fungus, and new shades of yellow all over it. I cannot keep count of them, though I have tried conscientiously. It is the strangest yellow, that wallpaper! It makes me think of all the yellow things I ever saw—not beautiful ones like buttercups, but old foul, bad yellow things. But there is something else about that paper—the smell! I noticed it the moment we came into the room, but with so much air and sun it was not bad. Now we have had a week of fog and rain, and whether the windows are open or not, the smell is here. It creeps all over the house.  NO INTENTION OF TELLING HIM IT WAS BECAUSE OF THELL PAPER HE WOULD MAKE FUN OF ME HE MIGHT EVEN WANT TO TAKE ME AWAY I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE NOW UNTIL I HAVE FOUND IT OUT THERE IS A WEEK MORE AND I THINK THAT WILL BE ENOUGH I'M FEELING EVER SO MUCH BETTER I DON'T SLEEP MUCH AT NIGHT FOR IT IS SO INTERESTING TO WATCH DEVELOPMENTS BUT I SLEEP A GOOD DEAL IN THE DAYTIME IN THE DAYTIME IT IS TIRESOME AND PERPLEXING THERE ARE ALWAYS NEW SHOOTS ON THE FUNGUS AND NEW SHADES OF YELLOW ALL OVER IT I CANNOT KEEP COUNT OF THEM THOUGH I HAVE TRIED CONSCIENTIOUSLY IT IS THE STRANGEST YELLOW THAT WALL PAPER IT MAKES ME THINK OF ALL THE YELLOW THINGS I EVER SAW NOT BEAUTIFUL ONES LIKE BUTTERCUPS BUT OLD FOUL BAD YELLOW THINGS BUT THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE ABOUT THAT WALL PAPER THE SMELL I NOTICED IT THE MOMENT WE CAME INTO THE ROOM BUT WITH SO MUCH AIR AND SUN IT WAS NOT BAD NOW THAT WE HAVE HAD A WEEK OF FOG AND RAIN AND WHETHER THE WINDOWS ARE OPEN OR NOT THE SMELL IS HERE IT CREEPS ALL OVER THE HOUSE
