The first area to get fixed...

..is...
What lies behind this curtain...
Which is this lovely hole...
which has been there since right before last Christmas due to the hubs knocking on the window to get Brye's attention. It has been this way ever since and for whatever reason we just haven't taken the time to make the phone call to the glass place. I guess we thought it was going to be expensive...I don't know...bottom line we just haven't taken care of it. The MIL mentioned that we might be surprised how easy it is to get it fixed and of course she was right. I've thought about those words ever since (maybe about a month) and took the leap and made the phone call and got a quote. Not too bad...$88 for someone to come and fix it and for me not to worry about it any more. I'll take it!! Mark then made the appointment so after almost a year the lovely hole gets fixed on Tuesday. Yea!!

Welcome to my Home...

....which is a constant work in progress!! But I love working on it when I have the time (and the funds). I change my mind all of the time on certain areas so I have a lot of "half-done" spaces. It is my goal now to finish some of these and also "fix" the "broken" areas (I'll post pictures) hopefully sooner than later!! Currently I'm working on several spots - the kitchen (repainting walls and cabinets) - the closets (cleaning out clothes and making space) - the extra bedroom (lets just say cleaning it out for moment) - and the hall bathroom ( adding a few finishing touches and eventually giving it a fresh coat of paint). All of this while working full time at a home decor store (where I get much of my inspiration) and being a wife and mommy to a 3 1/2 year old (and mom to our puppa and crazy cat). Through a few weddings and the holiday season in there (which is busy time at the store) and the result is ...... we've got a lot goin' on!! Hope you'll keep up on the progress as I'm hoping this blog will inspire me to get it all done...eventually ;)
