::getting busy

After admitting all the projects I had, the guilt and shame began to set in. So Sunday I set about getting some things checked off the list. Project one- replace blinds in the kitchen. We went to Lowes and they unfortunately didn't have the size we needed. Boo. So we had to drive to Home Depot and score! We were in luck. The lady who cut our blinds even said they'd only started carrying our size in stock maybe about 2 months ago. So, here's to laziness :D

Anyways, we started with the ugly aluminum (?) blinds...(which were really dirty...eww)

And got the lovely faux wood (yes...we didn't bust out for real wood. Sue me.)


So much nicer. Apparently to the hubs, they look the same. Umm..that would be no. :) Kitty decided to try and help speed along the process. There was white saw dust all in the box from where they had cut the blinds and kitty was covered in it within a minute of opening the box. *sigh Gotta love pets.


Also finished the laundry room hardware and organized 2 closets. *high five

What about you? Did you take it easy this weekend or get some chores done? :D

No. I just don't ever feel like spelling out his name. :) I'm just lazy.

i've heard that the real wood doesn't hold up in humid climates. so, embrace the faux!
