Very long couple of days...

In addition to my full-time job, and my classes...and my part-time job..I've been working out at the Old House a bit the last couple of days. I'm not going to go into it a lot right now because, as I've said, it's been a very long day and my bed is calling my name, but I promise you will have a much more detailed update very soon!

So to summarize..

We've mostly been doing a lot of painting this week..

Staying at the house long after the sun has decided to sleep

But I really think it's coming together, don't you?

You may have also noticed that my blog got a bit of a makeover as well. Nothing has changed really, except the look. You can still follow me on Instagram, Pinterest, or Twitter using the icons on the right hand side >

Or if you would prefer, you can get email updates when I post (also on the right > over there >>)

And now...

Goodnight :)

Ready for Friday...

It's been a weird week...not very weird...but weird enough..

I've hardly had any human contact outside of work, and I've had nothing but human contact at work. It's February break, so all the kids are out of school for a week...the hotel I work in has a water park in it so you can only imagine how busy we are.

My fairly strict boss pulled me aside for what I thought was going to be a serious conversation when in reality he just wanted me to tell him whether or not he smelled like Indian food.

I bought a 4 lb container of potato salad...not to share with anyone...just for myself. The cashier made me promise not to eat it all in one sitting. 

My computer has been having trouble loading videos, so instead of watching shows like I usually do in the evening, I made this giant bowl of mac and cheese, 

and put together a ton of funny little bracelets out of metal nuts. 

I found a tin of them in the shed...

I made some silver ones, and then painted some of them gold because I thought it would go better with the string that I had...plus I'm kind of into gold right now.

and then I just braided some string together, and braided the nuts right into the middle of the braid. 

The End.

Also, I cut my hair.

Sleep? What?

Since I'm going to be working two jobs over the next week, I am literally going to get almost no sleep at all. This is how my week is looking:
Monday night, I get home at 10pm from job#1, and the next morning (Tuesday) I have to leave my house by 5:20 in order to get to job#2 by 6am. I work there until 10am, then drive back to job#1 in order to work 12:30-9pm again. Wednesday I work at job#2 from 7am until 11am. Then back to job#1 for another 12:30-9pm.
Fortunately, Tuesday and Wednesday are the only days when I have to do both jobs, but still. I pretty much require 9-10 hours of sleep a night.(crazy I know) Not to mention it's a good 3 1/2-4 hours of driving each of those days since my jobs are in opposite directions.

But oh well. It's only for a week. After this week, I'll only have Mon-Wed at job#1 before leaving for good, and only having to work at my new job.
And I'm still excited about how short my drive will be once I'm living at the Old House.
Things are finally moving in the right direction.

And on that lovely note. Time for bed.

Goodnight :)
