Happy Birthday to Me!

Yep today is number 30! And actually we are minutes away from my actual birth time. So here is to hopefully not to hectic of a work day, and to lunch at the most awesome beer place known to woman.

Lots of this tonight during some relaxation time with a new Grey's.

Cheers, if you are looking for me hopefully I will be consuming a tasty beverage or two, as of right now that includes coffee.

More specifically it is the week of my birthday! I have 2 days left of being in my twenties, so thirties Bring it On! But seriously I have definitely heard from people to enjoy the thirties because it was a favorite time of their life. So for the next decade of my life I would really like to accomplish some more things, including:

1. Travel more (starting with the honeymoon baby!)

2. Pass the CPA

3. Eat healthier (no really I need to cut back on the crap I eat)

4. Find a hobby that I truly love and am excited to do.

These are just a couple of items that I would love to make sure I accomplish (hey I have 10 years right). I am willingly saying goodbye to my twenties, I have had a TON of fun but that fun also dealt with uncertainty and uncomfortableness of life in general.

Friday M has put together a dinner party at our house with family and friends, which I am super excited about.  What I am not excited about it he decided to tear open our living room wall Sunday night. I know I know, I wanted all the TV wires not hanging from the TV, but why is this project being started when we are having people over?! Why do men decide to start a project just before you have people over?!?!

Well hopefully at least the wall will be put back together by Friday, because I am pretty sure it will not be painted at that point :( Aggghhh men!

Happy birthday to me!

Wooop Wooop! Just spent the morning at DMV now it is work and then pizza time with friends. Man what a great day I have planned! By the way I LOVE pizza.

The house!

We  I found it! I found my camera cord. Although apparently we took very few photos before we started changing things up. There are also the pictures pre the old owners moving out and those where we have started the projects.  This one is the old owners "baby room", well those who have been reading that is NOT what I wanted for my birthday this year. See the color? The chair rail? We vetoed those before we even moved in.

Here is the room as the process started. The chair rail gone and the painting getting ready to go.

Our least favorite paint job had to be the kitchen. Country kitsch anyone?

Yeah blue walls blue counters, ugh. now I do not have a before before. So this is AFTER we took the chair rail off in the kitchen, it was like they tried to match the chair rail to the cabinets but did it really poorly, I mean I could pull off the base boards and chair rail with my hand? Really? So country kitsch no more (well the blue counters are still there but one day they will be replaced) and I am actually looking for a zebra print rug that can fit into space that is not shown here.

We still have another month before our bedroom furniture comes in :( but at least things are cleaning up a little. Finally the baseboards were put in the kitchen last night! woop woop, now they just have to be painted, but things are coming together and looking a little better. My focus get it together so we can have a housewarming party wooohoooo, who is in? Home brew, some of my uncles award winning wines. Yep my Uncle is the Assistant wine Master at Schug and the Best of Class, thats his! woop woop!!! Alright well this is getting long and I need to start my birthday!!! Woooohooooo 8:36 a.m tomorrow and I am 29, yikes, I am getting old.

February!

It's here!! Cheers to Bananas and me! I have a feeling she might have some issues because its my birthday month too, but you know what mine is FIRST! yahahaha. Two days and its birthday anniversary time! I went a little overboard this weekend with the shopping cause M told me I wasn't getting any presents :( Booooo to him. I guess in his defense we did just buy a house and bedroom furniture and a new mattress (bowchickawowa). But still a girl only has a birthday once a year!

In good news this weekend I think I found my camera cord! Well I found the box this weekend which means I still have not looked in it to determine the cord is in there. Maybe tonight I will get there. The baseboards for the kitchen/eating area are showing up tonight so hopefully those will be in this weekend and the "construction" part will be done.

Oh I am also taking inspiration from Mayra's bag studding and going to stud up my new converse (yes I love my all-stars). Now if I could just finish the other DIY tasks I have at hand. I also went and bought myself a cricut. I hope I actually use it...
