Z.
Little Bit is still missing. I'm exhausted, cramping, and it's overcast. Davinci is not a rainy day dog, and Goliath is unreliable, should he manage to get loose. I want to look for her, but people who have seen her don't call until the next day, making it extremely hard to track her whereabouts. She was headed towards the country club where they ( Read more... ) -
Sam Worthington <3
I watched Clash of the Titans last night. I never saw Avatar, so I may be a little behind the curve, but Sam Worthington is gorgeous. They took a lot of liberties with the myth, but he made an excellent Perseus. -
Foodie withdrawal.
I have been eating a lot of crap lately. I mean, it was one thing when it was just me and Austin was gone, because it's REALLY hard to cook a meal for just one. Also, it seems silly. But since he came back from Iraq we've been eating a lot of fast food, and a lot of meat, and it's making me feel gross ( Read more... ) -
Larger Dresser
This would be the bigger dresser Austin brought home. I love having a mirror in there, it makes it so light, but also makes it hard to take a picture of it with just enough light but not too much. The stuff on top of the dresser looks kinda cluttered. Hm. Have to figure something else out for that ( Read more... ) -
Smaller Dresser
So this is the smaller of the two dressers Austin brought back from Jersey. It was missing two handles, so as aforementioned, I put the knobs from the side tables on them. It actually doesn't look too shabby. It currently resides in our 'guest' bedroom, along with the new headboard, but I haven't gotten pictures of that yet. I also had to move my ( Read more... ) -
Sofa and Side Tables.
More of our mid-century score. I replaced the original, starburst-shaped bronze knobs with smaller silver ones from Ikea, and used those to replace some missing handles on one of the dressers which I haven't taken photos of yet. Eventually I plan to get new lamps (probably a little larger scale than what is currently in there) and hang up artwork ( Read more... ) -
Dining Room Set
So Austin brought back the motherload of vintage mid-century furniture with him from New Jersey. His family had zero appreciation for this stuff. His father was telling him 'you really aren't gonna find anything worth what you'll spend on the trailer' but the couch alone was worth it. But that's another post.

Ikea master bedroom.
I posted this one ourbedrooms a month ago, but I figured I should post it here too for myself.
This is our master bedroom, 90% complete. It's the most complete room so far. We still need some artwork, but I kind of like the bare walls anyways.

Dresser upgrade
So Austin is on a rampage wanting to get everything done with the house. It's a little distracting, to say the least, considering it's finals week. A couple days ago we got the handles installed on our IKEA Malm dressers. It makes them look a little more upscale. I really like how it turned out.

(Untitled)
So the Frisbie's are coming to visit us this weekend. I'm trying to clean the house. At the very least get the dining room, living room, kitchen, and guest bedroom/bathroom clean. I haven't really cleaned much since we've moved in, much to my chagrin. I've just been so busy. It's the kind of thing I like to sit and devote an entire day to. Or ( Read more... )
