Work at school has been pretty steady but I have today off (yay!). No rest for the weary though... it was a very long 4-day weekend here so the house is pretty messy. I've been meaning to shampoo the living room carpet and I'm hoping to get that done today. It's hard to accomplish much in the way of real cleaning with the hubby and kids underfoot. We got our taxes done this weekend and it ended up much better than what I was expecting. When the refund comes in in a couple of weeks, we should be able to get a new dining set and maybe even a new sofa for the living room. Our furniture is in pretty sad shape after having it all for 10+ years and many, many moves. The table we picked out is gorgeous... we're definitely getting that (I don't have a picture of it, sorry). The sofa that DH really likes is "ok" but not what I had in mind. It's a sectional sofa, which is more modern-looking than what I would like. Our house is old and I guess I have gotten into a rut of decorating with that in mind. It's also blue, which is very different than what I've done in the living room before. It would match the carpet and walls just fine, it's just very different to me. DH really likes the fact that it has recliners built in, especially since he hasn't had a recliner for a few years now.
Anyhow, other than gathering paperwork together and deciding on furniture, I did manage to get some website work done this weekend. I've uploaded a Jacobean Flower Vase set that was previously just for Oregon Patchwork's STGN club. I'm hoping it will generate at least a few sales. Just because I really like the designs doesn't necessarily mean other people will, but they are pretty (if I say so myself lol).
Well, these carpets aren't going to clean themselves so I should get off my rear and get busy here. Have a great day!
