Well, are ya gonna pay me what you owe me??
I realized that one of the sites I sell my designs on hadn't paid me since the September pay period!! They owed me over $200, and it took about a week for the owner to even answer my email about it.
Well, finally tonight, she sent the money that she owed me. I think she was hoping that I would just forget about it and let her keep the money. Nope. I don't think so. Actually, I think I'm going to try to get warmed back up to designing again, and see if I can make a bunch of extra money at it this coming year. Maybe I can work at the coffee shop while I'm ignoring Mr. Full of Himself. :D
For the house I'm planning to buy when this one is prettied up, if I can get it to sell.
I'm having this compulsion to get back on my Gazelle and exercise, but with the construction zone in the living room, my workout space is g-o-n-e.
Spring Break is coming soon and I think mine will have to be spent painting the beam parts and responging the walls where the drywall mud had to be overlapped. Hey, I could go on and replace the blinds then, too. I think that I might leave the couch and loveseat perpendicular to the TV and see how I like that. The part that I really don't like, though, is the actual couch and loveseat. hehehe The longer I own them, the more I detest the green. I wish that the lighting had been better when I bought them, and I'd have seen that they were really, really green, and not the tan I thought they were. Oh well, they were great at the time, and I have had them for 5 years now.
I guess I could start looking now for what I'd like to get. Although... I have to say that I saw a very nice ultrasuede set with a chaise at Sam's Club. But it was beige, and I'm not the neatest person in the world. It would pretty much defeat the purpose of the ultrasuede to have to cover it with a slipcover immediately.
It's a shame that the current loveseat is in almost new condition and the couch is nearly worn out. I'll probably sell the couch, and take the loveseat to our workroom at the school. The question is... Do I need a loveseat here at home? Or should I just get a nice couch and a chair to go with it? It's about time for me to get rid of the recliner that only my dog liked to sit in. Now that she's gone, it's taking up a lot of space.
One thing I have my mind made up about, however, is my tables. I'm keeping my slate-topped coffee and end tables, because they ARE nice tables. They're very classy looking, even if they are the heaviest ones I've ever seen. LOL Keep the tables, keep the lamps, lose the couch, loveseat, and 20 year old recliner.
There's that possibility that I'll have to re-paint the living room to go with new furniture, but that's okay. The hard part in that room is long over with. (sanding away all traces of that horrid border glued directly to the flat finish paint and priming the walls... Painting all of the old, dark stained woodwork white for more neutrality. ) I think that if I could get that one room finished and NICE LOOKING, it would give me the strength to hit the other rooms as well.
