Sweet nectar of life

Ambrosia of the gods...camera gods that is. What am I talking about? Batteries. Finally got some. My camera has been called in to action several times over the past week and wha-da-ya-know it was out of batteries. I'd really like an upgrade but we got all serious about our finances and yadda-yadda-yadda we put our tax rebate on my credit card. BORING.

On a completely different note, I decided that since we redid our floors our previously DARK furniture was too...well, DARK! So I posted them on KSL and craigslist. It took a lot longer than I wanted but we finally got them sold. I took that money and went to IKEA (I. heart. IKEA.) and did some shopping. First, we built us a new computer desk out of a butcher block counter top and legs they sell there separately. Its awesome. However, I didn't take pictures of it since we have all our stuff piled up on it (organization will soon follow...)Next, we spent three hours trying to debate what to put our TV on. We're still in the "tube TV" era so it's a little tricky. After several days of trying to come to an agreement, Kolt decided to gracefully back out of the design process (I heart my hubby too!!) and I had full control. WOo-WOo! So we went with some nice drawers suggested by my sister (who happens to have them in white) and I LOVE THEM!

kobe sneeze riiight as I snapped the photo. 

Oh and that weird letter "D" on the wall is the prototype for one cut out of wood and painted white. I was just trying to get the dimension right. That paper definately isn't going to stay. 

So far Des has yet to figure out that they're drawers. We'd like to keep it that way. No one is to open them EVER. in front of him. One half is all my sewing stuff and that would be the saddest day ever.
