Greetings! Despite the fact that this new blog is reportedly getting most of it's traffic from a vampire website, I feel like it's time for a proper update.
I should mention that I haven't been living in the land of excitement these days because the flu roared through our house and literally killed all of us. You've never known sick until you're praying outloud into a 36 gallon rubbermaid tub that your husband threw you for barf purposes. Meanwhile, Nathan has been the last to feel better, so I've been receiving the gift of catching warm fluids in my chest and transporting them to the sink. You don't want it to hit that carpet. But intense vomit descriptions is not why you read this blog! Let's move forward.
The flu really put a wrench in my dream plans of having Brian's sister-in-law up for a decor marathon, however, by the grace of God, we did get a few plans rolling and I love her for it. But I'm not ready to show you everything yet. Mainly because it's half done and I'm not a duster.
But, here is something. We had the Geek Squad over to hang or two TVs! I love them. And I can't watch them do it! At first, I was very hesitant to hang a TV over the mantle. Hello? I have crap to put up there and stockings at Christmas. But it's like my life has changed. I really am enjoying it. Nathan will never be injured by his ever-evolving plans to unwire the TV and E! News looks really good when Brian's gone and we're eating a 7:30pm dinner alone.
Brian kept yelling at me when they were hanging it up. I kept asking them questions like, "Has one ever fell?" or "How large of a TV have you ever hung in a bathroom?"
That's about as exiting as it's gotten around these parts. I have figured out that we get Hawaiian-like sunsets every night out the playroom window. It makes me feel good about living here. That I get a show every night.
Tomorrow it's haircut number two for Nathan in Fayettville, where I will become a hot-mess stage-parent/amateur haircut counselor expert next to him. We're also having our washer/dryer serviced, wherein it will be revealed to the repairman that I have never washed the inside gunk out and I am the most disgusting person in the world. Goodnight.
