Desk Redo and other stuff

Lucky you! 2 posts in one day!

I finally got the turquoise desk done~and while I was at it-I cleaned 4's room.
I didn't really have a choice.
You know when your kids rooms get to the point where you want to gag?
Yea, well that is where it was it.
When we moved into this house(over a year ago)
I didn't know where to put some stuff, so I shoved it in her closet.
It wasn't her closet at the time though.
the point is, I never cleaned it out until now.
Yep, pathetic I know.
I got 4 garbage bags of crap-clothes, toys, dress up-you name it, I shoved it in a sack.
Good thing-garage sale on saturday.
I figure since I have had to clean out every single closet in our house, and all the girls rooms-I should get about 20 bucks to go thriftin~
Imagine the possiblilties with 20 bucks!

Ok-Ok on to the redo.

Here is what it looked like before:

Cute huh? It was $3.

So-here it is.
In all it's glory
Apple green spray paint
I think I love you!
I have always used cheap spray paint
You know the 99 cents stuff.
Well-they don't make Apple Green in cheap
So-I branched out.
What a difference a couple bucks make.
I know many of you already know this-I am just a little slow.
Here are the rest of the pics from her room
I made the garland, I found the butterflies for 50 cents-spray them apple and brown.
Sprayed the garage sale shelf with the apple as well
I told you I loved it!


OINK OINK

i know that i am lame.
I know that I haven't posted in a while.
I know that I said I would and I haven't done it yet.
I have an excuse.
My family is a bunch of pigs!
Yep-we should call our house a barn, cause then they would all fit in better.
I am so not exagerating here. Pretty sure i am the only one who cleans around here.
When it takes me over an hour to clean the kitchen, and that does not include scrubbing the florr-which still needs to be done-the people that live here are pigs.
I am an exception.
I figure the one who does ALL the laundry-gets a free pass.
I love my family, I really do.
But, why do they have to be such HOGS?
Am I only one with this problem?
So-instead of doing all the fun crafty stuff I wanted to get done yesterday, I cleaned, not that you can tell know, but I did do it.
They used to be better-pretty sure they can get that way again.
Now, if only I can find a way to HELp them change without yelling.
Any ideas?
So-I am off to switch the laundry-fold two loads and clean the kitchen. (not as dirty this time)
Hopefully cause the girls are at school ALL day for the first time today-
I can get the craftiness done.
Maybe-you will all be lucky enough to see two posts in one day.
That is my goal.
It might require a diet coke from Mcdonalds-but I have decided thats ok.
it could be worse right?
What, you thought I quit.
I did. I just started again.
Not as much as before, just one every few days, instead of a few every one day.
Ok-enough of me babbling.
Have a good day all!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Yep-It's that time of year again!

Back to school time!
Oh yea-my most favorite day of the year. Forget christmas, this is way better!
2 out of 3 go all day, and 4 she will go for 3 hours a day, 2 days a week!
Yes-total bliss! NO children to bug me while I thrift!
The only bad thing-I have to wait until the 2nd until 4 goes to school.
Is it weird that I call my children by numbers?
I know that my cousin thinks that I am psycho.
Thats ok though-I really only care what total strangers think about me!
No, not really. I care what she thinks. Really-I do.
I love ya Lor! You know I do!
So-here are some pics from the most lovely day ever!
Enjoy!


pS-Maybe tomorrow-I will be able to get something constructive done-you know like spray painting!
All a matter of priorities people, all a matter of priorities!
p.p.S-Yep-I made the pencil cake. I am that good! I know that you all want to be my friend.

A bit of randomness!

Ok-you are all in for a little bit of Tausha-isms! Lucky you!
It's because I don't feel well-and so I have nothing exciting to show-oh like the finished project of the turquoise dresser!

First of my own little thoughts:
Have you ever grabbed a spoon from the drawer, stuck it in your favorite ice cream and the spoon had a little spikey edge? I so hate this!
You know what I am talking about right?
When you disposal goes on and makes this really funky noise and you realize there is a spoon in there. Just a little too late.
Now that I think about it-I am pretty sure that half of all of my spoons have been down a trip in the disposal.
Please don't tell me i am the only one who has this issue!
Random-I know.
I told you it was weird!

I got stung by something the other night.
You know me-if it can happen-it will happen to me!
Yep-I am that lucky!
Anyway-Ever since that stupid little thing stung me-I have not felt too hot.
My arm has all swollen up and I have this raging fever and I feel like I have been hit by a truck! Not a semi persay-just a small truck.
All i want to do is eat ice cream.
Is that weird?
I have a fever and i want ice cream?
I think that all moms deserve ice cream whenever they want!
What do you think?
So-I am off to call my hubby and see if he will bring home some good, cold goodness!

Thanks for listening. I know this post is very random. But I am entitled to a lit bit of randomness every now and then. Right?
Tell me friends that I am not alone.
Have a fantastic day!
PS-I was way too lazy to spell check and make sure that this all made sense. So-if I have a few run on sentences and hanging participles-you will all forgive me-RIGHT!
