House Schtuff
In a spectacular display of hungover multi-tasking yesterday afternoon, I managed to assuage my Netflix guilt while hitting up the crrrazy summer sales (from the comf of my own couch, naturaments). The following pieces will be arriving at some time sometime, at which point I will cajole my fella friends into installing them for me. Like clockwork, I be.
Number one - Sconce for the bedroom. Marked down from $130 to $70 at Resto.
(Mine's in silver...'cause it's second best.)
Number two - runner for upstairs hallway to make the Deuce feel more comfortable. Marked down from $500 to $350 at Po Barn.
Also picked up some bath hardware (towel bar, tp holder, etc.) while I was there to fance up the john a bit. Nothing like THIS, but one always needs aspirations. (Get it? Ass-pirations? HAHAHAHHAHA.)
In other news on the house front, the painters are coming in a little over a week to basically do the whole thing up! Very exciting, though I am nerrrrvous about the rather odd color choice I made for the bedroom. In a word: raspberry.
As for what's going to go atop these beauteous walls, I've got a number of new art pieces at the framers (hulllooo, $$$. damn.) as well as the Jason Miller mirror (so! psyched!), and Rick just hung my big ole chalkboard in the office last week, so yes, things are all coalescing. The gardens are looking beautiful, the lawn is well-fertilized with 1,001 Deuce turds and I'm ordering my snapping deck tiles this week...
Most importantly, I snaked an earlier air conditioning repair appointment so once that gets fixed, I'll actually be able to spend time here without wanting to remove my skin with a vegetable peeler. Whee! Won't that be nice. You're all invited over to celebrate. We'll sit around in our woolens and try to see just how cold we can make it.
