CURTAINS, MIRRORS, & CLOCKS OH MY!

Ever since the stupid sun started waking me up during the day--we have had a continual argument for the last three years--I've wanted to put curtains up. After shopping an awesome deal at walmart and coupons at Joanns--I HAVE MY CURTAINS. They are the special brand that has the extra layer to block out sunlight. To show my independence I put them up myself. I'm sure all the builders in my life will cringe when they see them--I, however, think it looks pretty good. With the pencil in my hair and the measuring tape out all over the place, I felt like a pro. The green is gorgeous and matches my bedspread. One day I will go to school for interior design--in the mean time I rely on the amazing talents of my friends to help me.

In addition to all my construction work I've discovered more fun for my house. I went with Amanda today to new favorite stores--Tai Pan and Rod Works. Where I found a few Christmas/Winter Decorations, a big mirror that matches my color scheme perfectly, and a big clock I love. Simple joys make a big difference in life. These things made my day--plus I did it myself which made it even better.
