Boring Blogging Girl

Yes, the title is referring to me. Yes, I know I have been slacking with my blog. I guess I have just been spending too much time reading all the other cool blogs I have found. Even better than that, I have just been enjoying my life. Nothing about my circumstances has changed other than I am no longer suffering from those post-partum blues. YEAH!! It took 8 months of being down, but one day it was just all gone. Now I'm just playing catch up on enjoying all the day to day things that used to just annoy or overwhelm me. Don't get me wrong, there's still chaos around here, but I'm finally enjoying it. Read on down for a few posts about recent events around here.
Oh, what else have we been doing?? I've been sewing; I'm making a really adorable baby quilt right now for a special little boy who has really inspired me. I'm also reading a great book: A Thousand Splendid Suns. EXCELLENT!! I've organized a cleaning schedule for me so my house stays relatively clean all the time. If you would like the details then let me know and I will post the method. It has worked out really well. We are still obsessed with American Idol and counting the days until the return of The Office (next Thursday by the way!!).
Probably my favorite thing that we have been doing around here is home remodeling projects. We are buckling down and finally adding some long overdue curb appeal to our humble abode. Saturday we painted our brick wall white. It looks really good. We are still trying to decide what to do with our fireplace and mantel. Any suggestions? Send them our way. We also had a plumber here today to give us a bid on a major bathroom expansion project that would extend our master bath and allow us to put a tub in. We are really on a roll. While we're at it we will paint our brown wall, paint our front door, replace the rest of the interior doors, etc. etc. Yeah for a husband who is on board!
