Prop/Guest Room updates
So here’s some pics of what we did yesterday! I finished painting it last weekend, as you may have read… yesterday we put up most of the shelves and unpacked what we could, and put the new futon together. You can see the edge of the main shelves there on the right. And the other side… with a creeper hanging…

More House updates
Since we got the wallpaper down last weekend, that meant it was finally time to paint. We finished yesterday. I don’t really have a before of either room – the garage door entrance is where the bug wallpaper used to be. The main entryway was the off-white/gold stripe that I never took a picture of (we got that removed the…

Finished the Bathroom!
OMG YAY! I’m really pleased with the colour, I was a little nervous about it. Especially since we picked it out and bought it back in September, I’d kinda forgotten what it looked like! And today’s Princess is Iridessa.

No more wallpaper
The handyman came today and got all of our wallpaper down. Seriously, we scrapped at that bug wallpaper in the entryway for 3 months… it took him 2 hours to get the entry way paper AND all of the master bath paper down. I’m so excited! He comes tomorrow to paint the bathroom for us. Here’s a before and after,…

Thank you God for bagels & Snow White art
Somebody brought in panera bread bagels this morning. MAN, they are so good… doubly so since I didnt have breakfast this morning! Anyway, today’s Princess is Snow White, in her wedding dress. A search turned up a picture of a real life Snow White wedding dress on display at Harrod’s, it was really pretty, so it’s what I used as…

Cleaning my office, costume schedules
I’m off work today – going to NYC today! Flight’s not til this afternoon – still got a few errands to run, etc. Anyway. I got my office cleaned up and made work-able again. I got some little baskets for my cabinet, so I can eventually organize stuff in there. I also got that new stool – it’s much more…

HOUSE
I finally took some pics of our house. I kept putting it off thinking, “let me get a little more done first…” but then I realised if I keep telling myself that, I’d never take pics. Figured I’d share our progress! Welcome! Says Indy. We have two trees in the front yard and they are SO pretty when the leaves…

GMX Plans & my Sewing Room

We FINALLY got to move into our house this past sunday, and everything is still chaotic… I have no idea where most anything is! I do know where my stuff from dragoncon is. I’m…

SO… my awesome birthday
So on Sunday I turned “old” and yesterday I bought a house. it’s been a two month debacle but yep… we closed yesterday, picking up the keys this afternoon. My birthday was awesome, I just have to say. It was a “big” one in terms of numbers, and Chase did an awesome job planning it, I was really actually surprised…

House hunting again
I hate house-hunting. But hopefully everything will go smoothly. We’ll know where we are by the end of the week – so we can see what our options are. BTW – here’s my twitter. I’ve gotten to where I use it pretty often. We are off to Metropolis for Superman Celebration this weekend. Lots of work left to do between…

the workroom – 10/30
Here’s some more progress on the prop room. We finally got the other shelves up, and unpacked a few more things. The boxes migrated. We’re going to be working on it some more tonight, to try to get it passable for having company over this weekend.

Working on the living space
Our extra bedroom – AKA the workroom – has basically been nothing but a giant maze of boxes and bins since we moved. Now that Dragoncon is over and we’ve basically settled back down into a more normal routine, we’ve really started tackling the workroom over the past week. These pics are from yesterday. I really wish I’d taken “before”…

the workroom
I wish I’d taken pictures of it as it’s looked for the last couple of months. Basically since we’ve moved, this room has been a room of boxes. I’ve gone through a few things – unpacked most of my costumes and put them away in the closet, trying to make room. We cleared a space for our shelves, but that’s…
