My Google Reader is almost whittled down completely as well (the reading blogs are caught up, it's just the others that still have me at 1000+... yes, I read too many blogs!). Hopefully that will be caught up soon as well.
Let's see, want me to share more good news? Okay, I saved the best for last... we've started working on completing the next room in the house (painting, decorating, etc.) and it was where we storing everything (meaning mostly my books). It's going to be my library! Darren went in and started pulling all all the crown molding and the built-in shelf running around the top off of the walls last night. We've got a lot of sanding and stuff to do before I get to completely decide on a wall color (I'm leaning toward a green...) and hubby has to get the wood to build the completely floor to ceiling bookcases. I'm so excited!

yay for being caught up! And of course, for new bookcases :D
ReplyDeleteOhhh....the new library sounds just lovely!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous that you are getting a whole room as a library. I wonder if I can convince my Darren to do the same. Well done on catching up.
ReplyDeleteWow, a library? How awesome!
ReplyDeleteYou gotta take pictures girl!! You can't just tell us and not show us!! We're dying here!! We want details!!
ReplyDeleteNymeth: Yay for getting my books out of boxes!
ReplyDeleteMolly: I hope it will be :)
Vivienne: I've wanted one ever since I was a little girl and that was the reason we got a three bedroom house :)
J. Kaye: I can't wait!
Cherry: You seriously don't want to see pictures right now lol. The people who lived here before painted the walls of the room bright red and blue and someone just slapped a coat of white over it so now that we're pulling the old shelves off it looks like we're celebrating the Fourth of July in that room. Plus, I got to find my camera charger since it's completely dead....
Great news all around! :)
ReplyDeleteI emailed you, but now I am thinking I must have used an old email?
Yay about the bookcases! I hope you'll share a pic with us once everything is done! ;)
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of your library!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on catching up!! Woohoo, what a good feeling! And a new library sound wonderful!
ReplyDeleteDottie :)
Kailana: Yep! I'm seriously doing the happy dance.
ReplyDeleteMelody: Oh I will! I might even put up one today while hubby is patching and sanding the walls.
Alice Teh: Thanks! Can't wait for it to get finished. :)
Dottie: You have no idea! I've been behind since before I even "met" you. I'm ecastic about catching up and the library too!
You lucky girl! A library. Now that's something I'd love to have. You'll have to post some pictures when you get it all set up.
ReplyDeleteWooHoo! That is great news. I have a dedicated room that is my library as well ( and a very understanding hubby!) I loveit - it is my sanctuary!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally jealous that you'll have a library to call your own!
ReplyDeleteDar: As soon as I can get my camera to work I'm going to post pictures. It's coming along so fast! We've already got the walls painted!
ReplyDeleteLuanne: Good for you! I hope mine will be my sanctuary as well. Hubby is putting his computer in what used to be the closet (his best friend is an electrician so we're moving and adding light switches and plug-ins everywhere) so I'll have to share but I don't mind.
Bermudaonion: Hee! You don't know how excited I am! The Arugala green (prettier than it sounds) paint went on last night!
good for you :)
ReplyDeleteyour soon to be library sounds great!
