At any rate, this weekend was spent spending money, cleaning, and decorating. Of course the items I really need, like a guest bed, weren't purchased but I found some awesome kitchen stuff at Ikea because when in doubt, I'll always be found looking at kitchen items even when my kitchen is pretty much at full capacity and dishes are already being stored in my living room?
The bulk of my weekend was spent prepping, painting, and cleaning up my sunroom/office area. This is what is looks like for the time being so we're going to call it Phase II. There are still several pictures needing to be put up on the walls & the desk area needs to also get cleaned up (not pictured for that reason.)
Isn't it great that I started with the room that my guests won't be spending much time in? Oh well, it's my favorite place to hang out so if this room is squared away it's alright that my room still looks like a mess.
The other place I spent a lot of time were my patios. The narrow one on the street side of the house (ie sunset viewing decks) are now clean with the herbs growing in the sun. Short of a small table out there they are done. The main patio...well, that's another story. Most of the planters are now planted with veggies and flowers germinating however it's a big old mess out there. I am never home long enough to see which parts get the most sun, to optimize plant placement. Plus, the furniture needs some serious cleaning. I started on one set but the wind kicking up dust made it nearly impossible to make any progress so I gave up. I'll try again once this rainy weather clears out.
