Today was my first day on my new job, well actually it's the same job just working for a different agency and county. Quite beautiful because I am doing the same thing, I didn't have to learn a new job with new rules and regulations. My co-workers in the office seem really nice and they are all dog lovers, so I am in heaven.
My only complaint is that I cannot visit all my favorite blogs throughout the day. I have to learn the ropes and figure out what I can and cannot do, so please forgive me if I haven't commented in awhile, I haven't forgotten about anyone I just have to visit a few each evening. I also work 10 hour days now because I have Fridays off. My play time has been cut down.
I did manage to take some pictures of my living room this weekend, you can see just how TINY it is, it's the original part of the house (107 yrs) you see how big my furniture is. What I want is a smaller couch with English arms, like this one from LEE FURNITURE I know it will open the area up so much, I love my over sized couch and chair now but I need a much bigger house for it.
I haven't gotten around painting anything in the room yet, I am planning on painting all the molding and trim the Swiss Coffee like I did in the kitchen. We are also going to be opening up the ceiling to expose the beams and give us a few more inches as of right now both my husband and I can place our palms on the ceiling! *I'm 5'10" and he's 6' * Very low ceilings.
I'd love to hear any comments or suggestions on what YOU would do to the space, there are so many talented decorator bloggers out there, I'd love to hear from you. All comments are welcome :)
Oh and WHAT'S UP with VICTORIA magazine??? I see people are getting it in the mail! HUH?? I missed the memo on getting a subscription. I've been looking for it on stands and can't find it. Can you help a sister out???
