Changes

With this being my last week before I start working, I've frantically been trying to finish up a few projects.
Project #1: Painting the first floor.

The kitchen has been done for a while:
Project #2 Re-upholstering the dining chairs:
I thought the fruit print would tie all the colors together nicely!
It's been a lot of fun putting my personality into this new place. It has definitly helped make this place our own!

New Experiences

So I'm pretty new to this whole blogging thing. I saw Cassie and Jonny's blog and immediately wanted to start one. I really like journaling and stuff, so I thought this would be a fun way to branch out in exploring the many ways of journaling.
This seems to be a week of new experiences...I just started the blog thing, and Adam started podiatry school this week. I'm really not used to him being gone so much since neither of us have been very busy since the time we got married. It was definitly time though to start having responsibilities. We found ourselves running out of things to do and spending most of our time floating between the television and computer.
I don't start my new job until next week so I've been spending my time painting the house. I just painted the living room green, but I need to do a second coat still. I'm really happy with the way its turning out. I love painting, and its hard to stop once I start. Hopefully, I can get it done before I have to start work.
