So, I haven't written a blog post in a while, so I figured I have to mention something this week. Well, nothing extraordinary has really happened. Being Rob's roomie has been great, and we haven't had any fights about designated space yet ;-) I'm currently trying to talk him into rearranging the bedroom furniture to create a more open floor plan, so we'll see how that goes. Apparently if we move the bed we need to move the TV, but it’s mounted to the wall, so we would need to buy a swivel mount, and by then we might as well upgrade the TV. HAHA! So, what seems like a pretty simple switch-aroo might turn into a home makeover. Stay tuned!
This past weekend was Jamie & Jessica's Couples Baby Shower. It was so much fun! We decorated onesies, played bingo, had prizes, food, and they got some really great presents for their baby boy. He's due at the beginning of April, and he had better not arrive before I get back from Europe. I'm ecstatic for them!
As for work, I can't complain ;-) I've been putting in some extra hours so I'll have extra cash when I leave for Europe. Which, by the way, is in 17 days!! Holy crap! Bambi, Abbey, and I are freaking out! We've been watching travel videos of the places we're visiting, taking notes, and shopping like crazy ;-) I'm just praying for good weather. That's all; I don't care if it’s cold or overcast, I just don't want rain. The temperatures between the two cities are a high of 60 degrees and low of 40 degrees. That's awesome! Now, just give me some sun, Dear Lord!
This upcoming weekend I'm visiting my older sister in Nashville to make some jewelry, and then hit up the Flea Market. I love making jewelry now! Abbey hosted a jewelry-making party a couple of weeks ago, and now she has me totally engrossed with this newfound hobby. I love that I can pick whatever color and design I want, and it looks so professional when I'm done. I went out after the jewelry party and bought like $100 in beads and tools to start my own kit. HAHA! I feel so crafty ;-) Mom and I have already made some great pieces, so I know Christine will love it.
I'm starting to realize that my "melodramatic" life isn't so melodramatic, more so just fun to write about ;-)

I loooove the jewelry!!! I've always wanted to learn to make jewelry... such a fun and practical hobby!
ReplyDeleteMelinda, I'm totally gonna be in Nashville this weekend. You should come by Christine's house for like an hour and I'll totally show you how to make it (and what tools to you'll need)! It's soooo addicting!!
