Buying Furniture

Last night we bought dinning room chairs for this antique dining room table (currently being used as a TV stand). I bought 8 chairs for $20 each! Score! They're wicker. I didn't want to worry about matching wood and I didn't want fabric. It was a crazy adventure to get them but all that matters is that they're mine.

It isn't as red as it shows in the pictures.
The chairs actually go well with the table.

Husband decided on a TV stand. I have mixed feelings about it but it's his house too.


Today I painted and painted and painted. I have painted for OVER a month! I am tired of painting. Now I am moving into the phase where we need to hire people to do some big things that I can't do. I am also beginning to STRESS! Major stress. I am juggling painting/preparing the house, preparing for the move, planning my Enrichment Week (starts a week from Monday--yikes!) and getting ready for the new school year. In addition I am trying to keep our current house clean and livable and keep with exercise and good eating. I will be honest the last two are a struggle! All I am focusing on is that in a few weeks or months things will get easier.

Tonight I focused on cleaning and cleaning our house. I definitely feel better now since the house is more in order. Tomorrow my Mom and I are going to pick out fabrics for curtains! I am excited.

Now I am heading to bed! We're planning an early, long run that is a different route. Goodnight!

YAY for new furniture! I am sure that is exciting. It is so pretty and was also such a good deal--Scoore! :)

You are a hard working busy bee with all your painting and cleaning. Have fun on your run this morning!
