See this guy? Does anyone know what he is? If I get a bunch of "It's a grasshopper, grasshopper" comments I'm going to feel quite foolish. See, this
Yes, entomology was a part of my job in the Army, but critters belong outside, not inside! I made husband hunt this down
Some of you mentioned wanting to see the wall in my family room. Well, here it is - Venetian plaster in all of it's glory. Don't mind the strip of crown moulding over there in the corner. It's only been there for about a year while husband decides if he likes it. I decided 11 months ago that I liked it - it's crown moulding for goodness sakes, not a tattoo! And can anyone tell me what movie that is on the TV??
Did you notice those are new flowers on the mantel? I bought those for myself. After enjoying the flowers that Lynn sent last week, I decided that I deserved fresh flowers every week! My market sells "nice" bouquets of flowers for under $10, so now when I do my weekly shopping, I'm including a bouquet of flowers with my food purchase!
Oh, and I did something else exciting yesterday - I joined our local gym! This is something I've been wanting to do for over a year, but something that has not had much support here at home. Guess what? Husband was not thrilled.
You see, this means that dinner might have to wait until 7PM instead of being served at 6:30PM. More importantly, it means that I had the audacity to do something for myself - the latter being the most "offensive." How dare I! Quite honestly, I think the real issue here is that these changes might make me feel good enough about myself - give me enough self-confidence - that I just might realize that I deserve better treatment from those around me *gasp*
