I took last week off to de-stress. It was a mix of chaos and control. Chaos due to my financial situation, control because I decided to work on my room to "relax".
Thank you to all who checked on me in the past week. I love you all and your calls and emails were very appreciated. I hope that you will share my experience with people you know and make sure you or your friends and family don't fall victim to email fraud like I did. It turned my world upside down.
My bedroom looks like a dressing room in a French boutique...but will look more like a "boudoir" when I get my bed in there. I spent the week just running errands with my mom, shopping for things for the house, and working on my room. I really worked on sorting through clothes and packing my closet last Thurs and Friday. Then I painted the little pine and plastic Ikea wardrobe to look more like an old wooden one. I had never done "decoupage" before, so I painted it and placed little decorative elements on it and it turned out really nice. It fits better into my room.
I bought a sewing machine (well, mom bought it with a check, I had no money at the time), and sewed up all the new upolstery remants into chic drapes for my closet. I also attempted my first pillow, which looks so cool. It's not difficult at all, and looks so custom because it matches my room. I need to make 3 more.
So I received my tax money. I haven't decided what I want to spend it on yet (I actually did get a nice jacket at Nordies, and cute shoes), so I'm going to look around for a new dresser, since I'm going to fix up the headboard to my bed. I'm going to give one of my dressers away, and "distress" the other 2.
UNLV went to Missouri to visit his dad. I know that he's been very worried about him, and I know he's having a good time. He comes back on Sunday. We're trying to plan to see each other, but it's actually totally hard this time around. I've got all these committments happening every weekend, and he's been so busy with school and all his projects. We WILL make something work...damnit!
I'm addicted to "Rockstar INXS" and "Big Brother" (mostly because they are one right after the other). JD Fortune ALL THE WAY. Dave Navarro has a blog, too. It's cool. 6767.com
Oh, sorry...the reason I include Dava Navarro in that sentence is because he is one of the hosts of "Rockstar INXS".
Alright. Work is about to end, and I don't have anything else to say. See you all Monday.
