house porn

-
so i'm addicted to house porn. well before we ever started looking for a house i was watching house hunters and hgtv. i would also frequent assorted online real estate sites. when were where looking at houses i would go online and look to see if anything new had been listed multiple times a day. i would also look at the million dollar homes and even homes that were just out of our price range. on occasion i would be chatting with a friend from college on facebook (hi colleen) and i would send her the links to the million dollar homes. she told me i was sending her house porn. now i know i'm not the only one out there who is addicted to house porn. don't all speak up at once... so anyway, last week my husband and i were having a discussion about a set he had worked on. (he builds sets for tv shows) he was referencing something and so of course i googled it. sadly i could find no real pictures of the set although i did find tons of video. i just don't really have the p...

so i don't know if i mentioned it, but something my husband is a very well connected man... well not really but that sounds better than right place, right time! so he was able to get us some fancy smancy kitchen cabinets! i don't know if i ha mentioned that our current cabinets are kinda crappy? the one set of uppers is falling apart and i can't put more than kitchen towels in there..so essentially they are empty. wasted space so i don't want to say where he got them for fear of getting in trouble- not  its not illegal!! they didn't "fall off a truck" and if they did they probably would have fallen apart or at the very least gotten severely dinged up. anyways... we are not re- doing the kitchen....kinda i had already painted so the pyramid gold is staying. sadly we might loose the avocado...like i had sad the paint didn't come out right- its sticky and how long ago did we paint it??? so..wanna see the cabinets? this is in the dining room go...

what i won't miss about retail (part 1)

-
DISCLAIMER: this post is not about any particular retail company. it is what i have learned/ observed/ experienced at 14+ years at XX, 7 intermittent years throughout college and post graduation at XX, kinda remember as a seasonal one year in college at XX, and barely remember for about a month at XX (bc i thought i could do 2 jobs at the same time and at the time i couldn't) these are my opinions about the retail experience and are not 100% based on one company so when i gave my 2 week notice i started joking around about how i wasn't going to miss this or that. then when i decided that i was going to start the blog again a decided that i was going to have a feature (or several) about what i wasn't going to miss about retail. before i left i decided that the #1 thing i wasn't going to miss was the music. and while this was decided based  on the awesome  music i got to listen to on a daily basis  it is not solely based on that job. i have several issues with the musi...
