Creative times....

So, everytime something bad has happened to me in the last year, I have gone to town decorating my house. And let me tell ya, it's coming together quite nicely! The first thing I did was paint my living room RED, then I painted my dining room green, and this past weekend I bought window treatments for my whole downstairs. It looks awesome. Some nice cream colored swag treatments with cute wrought iron hooks. I did this in the living room and dining room to tie the rooms together. I'm liking it, a lot.

Of course, I was about to have a nervous breakdown as I'm on the top rung of the ladder, using the power drill to hang these hooks, and I'm running into steel studs. Who puts steel studs in their walls??? I almost fell a couple of times as my brute force backfired as I'd run into the steel stud and the drill would jump off the screw. But no worries, my 96 lb. mother was there to catch me just in case :)

By the time I'm through my mini-depression my house should be finished! Next on the list is tiling all the bathrooms. But I'm basically just waiting on my dad to fit me into his schedule. The tile is already picked out and at my parents house. After that, maybe I will rip up the carpet and hardwood the rest of my downstairs? Who knows...the possibilites are endless. Oh wait, my bank account is not.....BUT I do know some people in the biz....:)
