It's so Pretty!

The townhouse looks a lot better now. Sunshine was able to come down this weekend and we were able to find nice looking cheap curtains for my bedroom at Super Target that are a ruby/cranberry red. My sister found curtains for the living room that are a light french blue with suiting stripes and then some brown curtains with gold-esque suiting stripes which really tame down the bright orange counter tops. Sunshine is my handy man for sure. He fixed our front storm door, the porch lights, the vent filter, my light fixture on my ceiling fan and he hung up all the curtains in the house. It helps that he is tall and quite handy with a screw driver. Thank-you!!!!

It wasn't all work though. The three of us headed south to T-town and went to Super Target, the mall, Barnes and Noble and Loops. I bought my curtains at Super Target and a heart hand towel for my bathroom. I didn't buy anything at the mall. However, I did go to the Apple store there and I pre-shopped for our insurance money that is coming this week. At Barnes and Noble I was a good girl and I only bought two magazines and one of them was something I was picking up for a co-worker. I was even good at Loops. I bought two yarn nail files, a Laurel Hill size J hook and a skein of Vickie Howell Love in "June and Johnny" which is of course, jet black. It's a bamboo silk blend, that is so soft, I just want to hold it. i did pet some Tilli Thomas yarn that has the crystals in it. i also looked at their Louisa Harding yarn that is made out of sari ribbon. So many pretty colors. I just love yarn. all kinds and colors and weights.

Anways, I had a fantastic weekend, the house is looking even better and things are getting A LOT BETTER!!!! YAY!!!! It might be Super Bowl Sunday, but I can tell you for sure that I won't be watching the Super Bowl. Most likely playing on my mac or with a new project.
