So I went and got my teeth cleaned for the first time in waaaay too long and boy are they sore. Not so bad today. But last night I was hurting. They looked good except I'm going to have to have a crown replaced. Ouch. (the ouch is more financially speaking than physically, though) I've been on a mad house cleaning/getting rid of stuff/reorganizing spree since getting back ...
This weekend was kinda busy! Friday night I got all my costumes ready for the photoshoot, which was supposed to be on Saturday. I burnt myself on a glue gun so bad I got a blister! That's a first. Saturday morning we ran errands, but then it was too cold for us to shoot, so I went to work cleaning in my office. I decided to try ironing some of ...
More work in my office last night. Tackled the giant pile of fabric and stuff in front of the closet. Didn't quite get through it but made a dent. Mostly worked on the cabinet -- cleaned it out, got rid of some stuff, found $30 worth of change and a ton of foreign money. Moved all my CDs up there, too! Yay!
Trying to get my sewing room clean; it's slow going. I've been trying to tackle it for over a month now. I did have to rearrange my patterns. I was bursting at the seams - I used to keep them in 3 little fabric square drawers, with some oversized ones stuffed under one of my chest-of-drawers and more in plastic bins. I moved them all over to the bigger drawers of ...
Last night I woke up at 12:30 in the morning and there was a light on in the hallway. It freaked me out, because we'd had people over that evening, and left the front door unlocked while people came and went. My paranoid mind immediately went to, "someone snuck into the house and hid" so I woke Chase up, but just as he woke up the light went off, and he ...
I had a very nice Thanksgiving break. Chase and I cooked ourselves a mini Thanksgiving dinner for just the two of us that night (after family lunch earlier in the day). It was really good and we still have leftovers after eating on them all weekend. The rest of the weekend was cleaning, errands, and our "Friends-giving" yesterday night which was a lot of fun. Yesterday we put Christmas out: ...
My way home from my new job takes me right by a house we looked at when we were house hunting back in 2009, so yesterday in my head I was reminiscing about it and some of the other places we looked at. We looked at a lot of short sales/foreclosures, since we could possibly get a bigger house for less money that way, but most of the ones we ...
Hi guys. Haven't done much lately because of all the painting and crazy work stuff. BUT I do have a few things to share now! First off, had a good mail day the other day: Chase has been playing a lot of PS3 lately and it's been making me miss some of my PS2 games. Besides playing Battlefront 1 and 2, I also dug out my old LOTR games - played Two ...
Finally got my sewing room cleaned up! Here's the blue cabinet - still needs a new magnet to keep the door closed. And the patterns I shoved underneath it need a new home. Here's the white wardrobe. Still want to do the blue accents, and make curtains, but it's use-able.
Hey remember that yellow chest-of-drawers I posted a few weeks ago? I took today off work and got it painted (and got a lot of laundry done.) I'm SUPER happy with the result. Here's it is after one coat: And here it is finished: I left the interior yellow and LOVE it. Rolling it into my sewing room tomorrow and then I can finally get things organized and cleaned up ...
