jbnswahwolvhbola23hgfahufxpximkxxik--love Kylee

It's been a while since I blogged.  Not because I have given up on my fair couple or anything...it's more about time and the things I have wanted to get done around the house.  Plus, my first born was home for spring break and so I was busy with her.

Anyway, I hate my house, but am resigned to living here.  I live in a suburb where you don't get much bang for your buck.  Anyway, in an attempt to make things better, I have been doing small home improvement projects.  This isn't easy for me because I am insanely lazy when it comes to doing things for myself.  But I love HGTV and it makes everything look kind of easy and so I started with painting my basement.

We spend oodles of time down there because of Kylee.  The room is a combination playroom/den/office and so I had to choose a color that would be okay for all three spaces.  Like, I didn't want the den to be pink, you know what I'm sayin'?

After many swatches and debates, I chose a color called Sycamore.  It's a shade of green that reads almost neutral, depending on the time of day.  I painted the whole room and was quite smug about it when I was done.

(It's worth mentioning here that I asked Lauren several times if she knew how to paint.  And also if she knew how to refinish wood floors.  She never really answered me.)

I have also ordered some art and am contemplating what shelves to buy...did I mention I am also indecisive?  I am, especially when it comes to things for my house. In fact, tonight I made an impulse buy, and have already tried to cancel the order.  It was a rug, and I don't think I want it anymore.  Too much like the one I already have.

But, back to our couple...

First of all, Jesse blogged.  I can't believe he said it, but he doesn't like Bravo.  Seriously, wtf.  Who doesn't love Bravo?  It airs all my favorite shows.  It's sacrilege that he wants the network headquarters turned into a parking lot.  Now, I ain't suggesting that war bond isn't enticement.  But come on.  What would I do without Top Chef?

Secondly, Lauren posted her recipes for buffalo chicken sandwiches and dip.  I told her I had made the required purchases and was about to make the dip.  She then told me I would have crazy nightmares if I ate it.
