This weekend
Yikes. I haven't had a real journal entry in such a long time. No better time than the present, I suppose.
Well, I'm just waiting for Wal-Mart.com to send me my password so I can order window curtains. Grrr.
The last couple of days I've been very disappointed in a certain somebody. However, that is for a private journal entry that only Amanda, Stephanie, and Dora can read. Or for a story to tell Alesha and Lorna at work.
Instead of being a typical woman and hitting the ice cream when I'm upset, I decided to be slightly more productive.I went hiking on Sunday morning. I'm not doing very good time so I'll have to work on that. Unfortunately the next time I'm able to go hiking is probably Saturday afternoon. I hate hiking in the middle of the day. I never want to get dressed fully for the day and then I have to shower afterwards. It looks like I'll have some free time in the evenings to go work out though. Speaking of which, I'm very upset that my gym now closes at 10PM. It's something that they call "holiday hours". Whatever. Malls stay open LATER because of the holidays.
I also finished painting my living room! No more paint splotches and no more handprints! It's all a beautiful Vanilla Brandy. I also built a bookcase. Yes, I did this all while I was channeling my anger on Sunday. Maybe it's a good thing that the boyfriend gets me mad every once and a while...
I started to paint my kitchen Vanilla Brandy as well, but it didn't look good. It blends in too much with my countertops. I think I'm going to paint the kitchen Fudge Truffle, but I'm worried that it's going to be too dark for the kitchen. Luckily, it's the most well-lit room in the house, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
I used the leftover Vanilla Brandy to paint my master bathroom. Now there's splotches all over my bathroom and it's driving me crazy. I'll have to work on my bathroom this week or weekend otherwise I'll go insane. I can't stand seeing my bathroom this way. However, it's a lot better than the yellow that was in it before.
I chose window coverings from Wal-Mart. The two windows in the living room have thick waffle textured chocolate curtains. I have a sheer brown from the sliding glass door leading to the back yard. For my two big windows in the kitchen, I think I'm going to do burgundy textured sheer curtains. I still need to buy curtain rods for all of the windows. After that, I should be set.
I'm hoping to be able to work on my fireplace during Christmas. I want to get rid of the Miami-style tile that the previous owner poorly installed and put in some new tile. I'm looking at a dark brown or black color. I'll also do some sort of a mantle, but I haven't figured that out yet.
I still need to get an entertainment center. I'm looking around for the best prices. I don't think I'm picky, but I want it to be modern and black. I haven't found one that I'm willing to pay the price for yet.
After that, lighting is all I have left to do. Oh and accessories. I still want that mirror above the fireplace.
I ALSO WANT MY NEIGHBORS TO MOVE!!!!!@!@#$!@#$!@#$@#$ They have a fire in a fire pit burning in the DRIVEWAY and the smell is coming into my house!!!!!
What else...
I don't know! I think I'm done for tonight.
