Thoughts and Upkeep

A few thoughts/happenings from the summer that I haven’t shared with you…

My Mom found and gave to me a box of books from my childhood. It includes my hardcover copy of Anne of Green Gables inscribed by my grandmother. Plus lot of others like Stone Soup. Princess and I are both thrilled!

This budgeting thing is REALLY hard! I’m never gonna be able to stick to it.

King and I went to see Julie/Julia. It was good though I will admit it dropped off a little at the end. After watching it we realized that we have a copy of Baking with Julia but not Mastering the Art of French Cooking. I don’t know how this happened! My husband loves to cook and as a child would watch the Julia Child cooking shows instead of cartoons. So, I am on the lookout for it used, although it probably would have been much easier to pick up a few years ago.

I have several book reviews to do. I’m really behind. I also have a couple of crafts to show as well.

I have totally fallen off the healthy lifestyle wagon. And my pants are starting to show it.

I am almost finished with the little bathroom, finally. For such a small space its sure taking a lot of time. The hallway is painted. I’m waiting to put pictures back up till I’m done with the whole main floor. Landing walls are painted, hooks are up (squee!!), floor still needs painted but I have to evict everyone from the house to do that. I have also decided to decorate it. It’s a very small space but has big function. It’s the first room you see when you walk in and the last when you leave. I want to set a good mood. I’m thinking a tin star and some inspirational vinyl wall words. Next up is the living room. I don’t know if I’ll put up pictures. I’ve already missed the chance for before shots.

I have my fall list written and will post soon.

Here's a question to any blogger users. How do you underline?
