Random Bits of Information

1.  Remember that little beauty of a dresser Ryan and I bought for our bedroom? Ya, so I went and picked it up yesterday and was too excited to see it in our room to wait for my sweet hubby to walk through the door, so I ask Austin to help me unload it. And he did.

Right.on.top.of.my.right.foot.

My foot that I was wearing a flip flop on so that I could absorb all pain possible. The top and bottom of my foot now resemble my sister's 9 months pregnant swollen appendages from years ago. And it hurts. And it's turning purple. Nice.

2.  Ryan unpacked our bathroom for us last night while I lay in bed with my injured foot. We can see the counter now. Greatness.

3.  Remember me saying Ryan and I had our bedroom painted, and I hated the color? Well...I had it repainted yesterday for less than half the price we paid the first time around, and I love it! It looks so much better...flows with the rest of the house. It had too much green the first go round. Ugly. Am I the only one who would have had it repainted, or would you have lived with it? I am so not a high maintenance person, but I had to pull the card on that one. Thank you, Ryan, for understanding my OCD in this area. You are an animal, and I love you.

4. I love lamps....I am returning the original ones we bought for our bedroom, and bought 2 more from Hemispheres yesterday. I really do have a lamp problem.

5.  There are only 10 more school days until I am a free woman and 19 days until we leave on the Soladay Caliventure! Our California park passes came in the mail yesterday, and I.am.stoked.

6.  I am feeling major Mommy guilt right now because I have been so consumed with house stuff. I am looking forward to getting the house organized over the weekend and returning to our regularly scheduled program with an emphasis in familypalooza time.

7. Nothing shocks me anymore. Just sayin.

Happy Thursday!!!

Moving is such a bear. I know you weren't following my blog when Brad and I merged households but it was one of the most challenging things ever.
Items just kept coming out of the walls. We sat down and figured out that we gave an entire house away. Tooks us months to do it though.

Yikes - hope the foot is doing better!! Or you have some good pain meds. If not, just ask Coco for some.

I would've repainted for sure. In fact, we've only lived in our house for 10 months and I'm already wanting to repaint 3 rooms!! Trey's about to kill me.

Glad to hear it's all coming together!!

OWWWWIE!! bless your heart. moving is something you can't help but be absorbed with. don't be guilty, it must be done!

Ouch! Hope your foot is ok! Probably doesn't help that you have to be on your feet a lot during the day!
I would repaint. For sure!
Have a good weekend!

Glad yall are getting settled. I don't care for moving, but LOVE to get settled. I stay up for days at a time doing it. I know. Weird.

Browns said...

You don't know me...but I LOVE your blog. You are so down to earth and such a great example of being a fun, involved parent! I just had to comment about the paint. Why would you NOT repaint? Who wants to walk into their bedroom and every time think how much they hate the wall color? I repainted our living room three times until I got it how I pictured it in my mind, and my hubby just sighed each time. Gotta love supportive husbands!

Stacey said...

Ouch...that sounded painful! I'm thinkin' you can play this one for awhile though. :)

The Soladay Family said...

Thanks, ladies!

Brown: So very sweet of you! I hope you stick around! When you have a vision in your head of what it's suppposed to look like...you can't rest until you're there! Got your back on that one!

Coco said...

You know my ass would of repainted the room.

Lucky Ryan has the patience.

Adam? Not so much.

I am in total need of lamps in our bedroom. Ideas?

Can't wait to come sit on that back patio with you this summer!!! Holla~~
