While the HH was away visiting The Girl last week I put on my crafty pants and went crazy. I honestly don’t know what came over me.
For starters, I painted the laundry room. The walls needed a second coat of paint. I did those AND painted all the trim in the laundry room as well. I also hung up the clothespin wreath I made a few weeks ago as well as a corkboard I snatched out of The Girls closet. Finally, the laundry room is finished. {I’ll post a picture of it later this week}.
And YES. That is an Alaska Airlines hot beverage cup from my last flight. Instead of letting the flight attendant recycle my cups, I stuff them in my carry on bag to reuse later at home. It’s true. I am that much of a weirdo.
I also pulled Monkey Boy’s two remaining bathroom cabinet doors out of the closet and started staining them. Each side needs about 7 coats of stain so it’s kind of a big ordeal.
I have one for coat to go before I can flip the doors and start on the other side. Hopefully I’ll have them finished and installed by the end of the week.
I also had the idea to haul my dining room table into the living room and move the grey couch to a different spot. But I’ll have to wait for The Girl to come home for winter break so she can help me move everything around to see if it would look good or not. If I ask the boys they’ll just moan and say the furniture looks fine where it is {so they don’t have to move anything of course}.
I whipped up 10 pin keeps. Now all I need to do is stuff them and get them listed on Etsy. 
I dyed wool.
And drooled over the latest Sundance catalog for a good 10 minutes before tossing it into the recycle bin. I LOVE the clothing in there. In my imaginary life I’d only wear Sundance and REI clothing and not bat an eye at paying $300 a for a pair of well made shoes. I’d also speak French and have a Chalet in the Swiss Alps with a live in masseuse and have a really cute guy on standby who’s only job was to grind cocoa beans each afternoon and bring me hand crafted hot cocoa and Lu Cinnamon Sugar Biscuits.
I would call him Pierre. And he would have a brother {for you}.
I love Amazon. Less than 18 hours after ordering my new kicks online they arrived at my doorstep.
Oh, and I had the heat turned down to 60 degrees the ENTIRE TIME the HH was out of town. What do you want to bet I saved $10?
Keep calm and stay delusional. That’s my advice for today.
