Just a quick update to tell everyone that we finally finished painting and decorating our bathrooms! Woohooo! We only have one more full bathroom to go and then we’ll be done with those. We’re starting small with the painting business so don’t be too harsh of a critic!!
I’m putting in links to matthew’s blog about the updates b/c he did a great job showing the pictures and such!
Happy New Year!!
So it’s 2008 and I have started the year of with a bang!
1) I put in my two weeks notice for the daycare – I still don’t have another job but it’s time – I’m ready to move on and really focus on things that need my focus. I have some bitterness towards this leaving for many reasons but I’m trying to be as nice as possible. If you want details give me a call.
2) Matthew and I found a great bargain at Sofa Express – they are going bankrupt and we found a great bedroom set really cheap – so we now have a real bedroom set, two nightstands, a queen bed with head and foot boards, dresser with mirror, and a chest of drawers. We even got nice lamps for the bedside and the dresser. I’ll put in pictures and you can check them out yourself!
3) I think this year I’m going to try and sell my crocheted stuff. So I’m taking orders. I’m also going to make at least one child’s sized sweaters.
4) I guess another resolution is to try and keep the laundry washed and folded without having piles of it. More over I want to keep the bedroom looking nice and pretty. Hell I might even make the bed EVERYDAY! eh, once a week will be enough.
Alright that’s it for now, I need to go switch the laundry and clean up and get to the stores soon. I’ll post again this week (yell at me if I don’t!)

I have just redecorated the house….we got new bookshelves, which, amazingly, hold all of our books – for now. I can only imagine in a few weeks we’ll be busting at the seams. But for now we’re good. We just need to get some wall anchors and we’re golden. Since we’ve replaced our existing bookcases they have been refurbished into DVD holders, a booze holder, and a picture display. I have to say I’m pretty impressed with myself. I even placed the Bird of Paradise from the wedding over the stove and moved the red vases above the dishes. Yep yep, I’m pretty darn smart! With that being said I need to take new picsof the loft room/ and the living room/dining room. Since I’ll be out of town for a few days I’m hoping to take pics before the party and uploaded soon. Alright, that’s about it – Peace all!
Yes, that’s right folks – I am the proud new owner of a red lego brick….Now you may say, but Anna a lego brick is nothing, you can get one for a quarter – oh contrare (sp?) my friend!
THIS is the lego brick, I speaketh of:
This is normal looking brick is really a 250 GB USB 2.0 Harddrive – yes a harddrive one could play with 🙂 Isn’t it pretty!
So why do I have this? Well 1 because it was my birthday gift from Matthew – Thanks Chieu! and 2 I really need a lot of space for all my pictures and music – already my hard-drive on my new reformatted laptop was reaching 45% full….without what I had on before. Sooo that’s why – Isn’t it beautiful????
Also, does anyone have a basement they want to finish? I know the right people – Owen Corning – Seriously it’s some goooood stuff -I’d have my basement done in it within a heartbeat but I want a deck first. So if anyone is interested please let me know – I’ll get you the best sales persons in the world – seriously a great man with integrity, now how many door to door salespeople can you say that of??
Okay that’s all, I’m off to bed – night all!
Sorry I’ve been away from the keyboard, been kinda busy with upgrading my computer and reformatting it…I seriously had 3% of my 80 Gig hard drive left…..which isn’t a lot. So the computer was wiped out, and I’ve been rearranging the rooms so that I can take more pictures this week.
Landon II Floorplan (click me to see a picture!)
I did, however, scan an image of the floorplan of our home. The first thing you see is the upper level. The part that is circled is our layout, so put that over the drawing below it. We do not have the optional half round window, but we do have the optional wood rails…very fancy!
On the first floor there are a lot of marks so bear with me…. We do have the optional breakfast bay, the optional luxury master bath with optional second sink, the optional powder room, the optional gas burning fireplace, the 2′ bump to great room/dining room, and the full front porch. We do not have the optional service door….all the other marks were me playing house and sketching where things could go.
Oh and I should mention that our house is flipped, so hold the image up to a mirror and you’ll really see how our house looks 😛
Enjoy! I hope to get more pictures up this week, so yell at me if I don’t!
