new beginnings

ok. so i've never been on a date. haven't quite figured out how this is possible, but it is. i have two exes... err, well one for sure. i am unsure what to call the second "situation" i was in... i dont think you can have an ex (even if it lasted for two years) if the person never actually admitted to dating you. 


with that being said, i think i'm a pretty late bloomer. i realized the other day talking with one of my volusia friends :) that i am not certain how dates even work...or what you wear or how to behave. i am like a fish out of water. i would like to learn how to swim ;)

reasons to remain single

this list is in its infancy and I am sure that it will grow :) when I listen to everyone complain about former sig figs (aka significant others) I realize that there are SO many reasons to stay single and smiling! here is what I have thus far... 1. Sleep diagonally across my queen bed and sprawl without concern 2. If the house is a mess, it's my fault and no one else's 3. I can leave laundry in the dryer for days until I'm prepared to fold it 4. I can eat the last bagel/apple/pickle/cookie if I want because I don't have to share! 5. I always choose what's on tv 6. The Toilet seat is never up 7. No one expects dinner to be made 8. An acceptable dinner can involve edamame and an orange 9. I dont have to be concerned if half of my bed is covered in books and my laptop 10. If I get off work at 5:30 but don't get home until 8:45, no one is calling me to see where I am 11. I don't find facial hair shaving remnants all over my bathroom counter/sink (....

updated projects because i have ZERO completed ones :)

well! slacker blogger that i am decided today would be a good "catch-up" post day. since the last blog post i successfully grouted tile (and it looks amazing, might i add) and my parents helped me lay about 1,000lbs (ok slight exaggeration) of mulch along the front/west side of my house.  so! on to the bathroom -- my bathroom is an amazing original demonstration of 1950s tile. oh, and not just any tile ::: light green and big bird yellow tile. the major redeeming quality is that the grout is impeccable and the tile is all in one piece, no broken/cracked pieces. however, the sink, toilet and tub are all original and other than the tub they are in terrible condition. rusty corroded plumbing and disgusting yellow fixtures. voila! the project that followed my grouting success! below are before and afters. i decided it was most financially wise to remove the toilet and install a water-saving toilet and then get a new sink in there with some storage because the bathroom had...

weekend/sunday project time

about two weeks ago there was an arts market where this guy from atlanta had these really amazing carved wood pieces of art. i ended up with a really awesome owl (see below) but once i hung it on my living room wall i realized it needed some company.  i started brainstorming (read: pinterest stalking) and i came across a few ideas for mirrors surrounded by wood, which was the general idea i had to start. my initial thought was taking pallets, ripping the wood and making a basic, rustic, unfinished frame. that idea got scrapped when i saw these postings  Wood Chevron Mirror  and  Shim Mirror .  when i saw these i knew that i had to do something similar. sooooo -- i fused the ideas together. off to the home improvement store. i bought 15" long cedar shims, minwax stain in jacobean, two 2x4' pressed boards, glass/mirror cutter, paintbrushes, and gloves. i thought originally to use an old mirror on the back of one of my bedroom doors as the mirror, but my mom ar...
