Halfway gone…

We’ve been in our house for four and a half years now. It has been a royal disaster for four and a half of those four and half years. I am not a housekeeper. Mess and filth drive me insane, but taking care of it is like utter torture. I am easily overwhelmed to the point of paralysis and little things turn into big things that turn into insurmountable things and… Mental illness for the… Keep reading…Halfway gone…

Let the walls come down…

Three Saturdays in a row we went furniture shopping. The first we found a whole lot of what we don’t like. The second, we found what we do like. The third, we pulled the trigger and plunked down a large sum of money. Ouch. We’ve been intending to get a new TV stand for the living room since we moved into our house, but it wasn’t a priority because the one we had was holding… Keep reading…Let the walls come down…

Willing to bet it…

Listing… 1.) Insomnia is a royal bitch. 2.) Every twenty-eight days, my uterus tries to kill me. This may or may not be a large contributor to list item number one. Currently, at least. The rest of the time is a mixed bag of fun. And by fun, I mean EFFFFFF Youuuuuu. 3.) Somebody told me recently that I’m young in terms of changing my mind about having kids. I’m 35. So…no. No I’m not…. Keep reading…Willing to bet it…

Won’t let it bend…

Oh hey, Insomnia. How’s business? I have some expletives and rude gestures for you. *AHEM* ANYWAY. a.)

Two-plus hours later, we got up and here we sit. Yes, the “we” in this scenario is me and a stuffed… Keep reading…Won’t let it bend…

Make for a good disguise…

a.) It’s 66 degrees in my bedroom. The rest of the house is currently 72 and comfortable, but the bedroom is consistently 66 degrees and freezing. With the heat on. Windows are highly overrated. b.) I keep looking at this blog, seeing a multitude of formatting issues that have been sitting around for far too long. And despite the fact that they drive me absolutely insane, I can never muster the mental fortitude to fix… Keep reading…Make for a good disguise…

On to something big…

Apparently 34 is the age at which I get stupidly excited for a new freezer in my house. Who knew? We’ve been planning for an upright freezer pretty much since we moved into our house. It wasn’t a priority and we wanted to make sure we had the money to pay for it outright. We’ve been doing that with most of our big ticket purchases. We figure out what kind of budget we need to… Keep reading…On to something big…
