Yeeeccchhhh!!

....and this what a tiiiiinnnyyy little crack in a hose can cause! What we thought was going to turn out to be a little leak, has wrecked half our floor!

Soooooo loud, four fans tunning nonstop!

Let the closet battle recommence!

As you may have known from reading past entries, I've been battling common clutter, and expanding wardrobe.. i swear, both multiple like bunnies!

I just came across a random blog where the author was trying to take hers down to 40 pieces! Might not sound like much,  but if done right, that could make 400 outfits! Her goal included all her shoes and accessories though, while mine will include strictly clothing (for now)... wish me luck!

Top of the hour, Culinary duel!

Breaking news from my kitchen: The spatula has been in an altercation with the dishwasher... And the dishwasher won, bending the spatula into a nearly perfect 90 degree angle! More on this story at 6:00! 

I should NOT be allowed in the kitchen, I swear!

Has anyone ever had a can good of vegetables spray like a shook-up can of pop when you went to open it? After tonight, I can say I have.. two seconds after the blade pierced the can, there was sweet potato juice sprayed EVERYWHERE in my kitchen... on the walls as high as my cathedral ceiling, the cabinets, the floor-even the light fixtures! Oh, so fun to impromptu scrub my entire kitchen!

 Add this to my list of kitchen inabilities of: can't make Jello, I mess up frozen pizza, and I can't make mac & cheese with a decent success rate...

 

oh, and I forgot to include what else it covered... me! All in my hair, my clothes, etc... grrrr! Time to go take a nice hot, LONG, deyammifying shower!

(And yes, it was still 'good'.. the 'best buy' date was still about two years away.. I am very OCD about such dates lol) 

...annnnddd Bathroom Makeover complete!

Yay!!! Finally after a few weeks, I have my bathroom redone!!

New paint on the walls, new towels, new vanity table, LOTS of new perfume (well, I needed new stuff for the top of the vanity, of course!)...and new awesome Marilyn pics for the walls!

Check out the befores and afters!:

Feline treasures!

It's been just about a year since we rescued these two furballs, and it's almost like we have two totally different cats from then! I ♥ them!

 

 

Cleaning by any other name.. is procrastinating!

Cleaning and organizing has so far consisted of a 2 & a Half Men marathon and finishing decorating for Christmas...

...and this attempt at making fudge. Which should be interesting, since I can't even make Jello or frozen pizza! (I'll save THAT story for another time..)

Wish me luck! I'll definitely need it!

Pep Talk! Not for sure if it will work or not..

I WILL do some much needed house cleaning/organizing today!

Now, where's that motivation and energy I need to possess to get started?

Marriage, singlehood, what pushes you one way or another?

Okay.. Been thinking about this off and on, and thought I'd get my friend's input, since I have many from many different paths in life. Why do people get married anymore? You can do everything married as single, or in a dating relationship- have kids, co-own a house, have multiple partners (interesting trend in media's spotlight the last couple of years,), live together, so on and so forth. So, if you're married-why did you choose to make the plunge? If you're single- do you want to? Or are you perfectly content not being legally linked to another person?
