Last May, we got a new sectional sofa and new table/chairs set. I'm pretty sure I blogged about it all at the time, but lacking regular access to a computer, I was never able to post the pictures I'd taken. It's not really very exciting to me anymore because the couch turned into an annoyance pretty quickly. Turns out it was cheaper quality than it appeared in the store. Part of the couch was delivered broken because it couldn't withstand the pressure of the delivery guys’ couch-tie-strappy-thing carrying it up the stairs. We got the stupid thing "fixed" but I'm not impressed and I want to smack the no-longer-cute guy at the furniture store that lied about it being MADE IN OREGON. Friggin' sticker on the bottom of the couch says “Made in China.” It figures.
ANYWAY, please enjoy these blurry pictures of our “new” couch, table and chairs. Yes, that’s my cat Doohickey; previously annoying cat turned couch potato with the arrival of the new couch. (That was weird getting used to. She didn’t sleep on our old couch very much.) And that’s the first meal enjoyed on our new table. It tasted a hell of a lot better than it looks in the picture.
Also, a random photo of the cake I made for my moms birthday, May 31st, 2011.
I’ve decided to add a page to my blog for projects I’ve done. So far, I mostly have some pictures of jewelry I’ve made more recently. I never used to think about taking pictures of my completed projects. Some of which include: wooden tic-tac-toe boxes with clay game pieces of various themes, random magnets, pens with fake flowers attached and wrapped with floral tape. I used to be pretty into making cute soaps and jars of bath salts, too. I’d say most projects I’ve done haven’t been amazing lol. Some of the jewelry I make is pretty quick and unimpressive, and some I take my time and have positive results. With my new addiction to pinterest.com, I’ve found an abundance of amazing craft projects I want to try. It’s a craft project idea overload and I love it! One project I’ve seen on the website and have recently started is making necklaces out of metal washers from the hardware store. It takes a little patience, of which I tend to lack, but so far, I’ve had positive feedback. Once I get more necklaces fully completed, I’ll start taking pictures. I’m pretty excited about it. (I’d probably be more excited if my new paper punch wasn’t such a butthead, but that’s a rant I decided to skip for this post.)
Does “Fur-Kid Friday” have a good ring to it? I’m trying to decide if I want to start a weekly blog post. Some people have one, like Wordless Wednesday, but I’m not so sure if I should start one. With my luck, as soon as I get good about posting once a week, I’ll end up losing my regular internet access lol. Anyway, my thought is posting pictures of my pets every Friday. I’m just not sure if it would be new pictures taken during that week, or any pictures I feel like posting that day, or both. If I decide to stick to only posting pictures of my pets once a week, I may not have anything to post about every other day lol. My life is rather boring… it’s all about my fur babies. Speaking of which, Brodie is now 5 years old as of March 8th, Ezie will be 3 in May, and Doohickey will be 6 in June. My babies are growing up so fast! Insert a sniffle and a single tear falling here. ;)
Well, it’s 3 in the morning and my mind just went blank. I guess that’s all for this post!
I'm adding two digital-scrapbook pictures before I end this. Haleigh! And Cocoa. (RIP 2010)
