  1. Eric Blain Scherer- how can someone make me so crazy, and be absolutely lovable all at once?
  2. Pandora- if you have never tried this new music phenomenon i would highly recommend taking a look at www.Pandora.com, it is this amazing website where you can pretty much make your own radio station. (i’m actually listening to it right now)
  3. my sister- this is kind of a weird one, but my sister has had 2 c sections (and now has 2 amazing girls, 2yrs, and one month) and after all of that pain and misery for 9 LONG months, and a painful surgery at then end i guarantee that she would do it all over again for another one!
  4. spray paint- i have never really used spray paint until this weekend, and i must say that i love it, who couldn’t love something that is so quick and looks so good! WOW
  5. Twilight book series- i just started reading them last weekend and i am IN LOVE!!! each book is like 500 pages, and i am already half way through the 2nd one!
  6. Norris Hot Spring- AAAH whats not to love about hot water, it just amazes me how a spring can be hot, and how absolutely pretty it is out there!!! you gotta go!
  7. water heaters- they never meant a thing to me until i  moved into a house that desperately needs a new one!
  8. the fact that i am “trailer trash”- yes thats right i just recently moved into a trailer, but i really can’t complain since i have an indoor hot tub, and a garage!!!
  9. wall paper- i don’t know what the people of the 70’s were thinking with their hideous wall paper, but it is sick, and it absolutely amazes me!!! yuck!
  10. i amaze myself!!! duh as usual i never cease to amaze myself!!!!!!!!

so as i have previously mentioned i am in the middle of moving out of my apartment and i am moving into a house with my friend katie… that my friend maddie owns, but is no longer living in.  i am really excited because i get to design my room, which includes painting (YAY)!!! so this morning after taking my final load over to the new house i began thinking paint colors.  and when i start thinking about paint i usually think MARTHA!!! i love her, i love the things she designs, the colors she uses, and the urban, vintage look she designs them in!!! AHHHHHH.  so this morning i found myself paroozing around marthastewart.com and i got so excited i just had to write a blog about it!!! there is so much that i can do with the furniture and accents that i have already, and with a few extra bucks, and a can of paint i am going to have the room of my dreams YAY!!!!

  1. the fact that i only have two more days in this gross apartment!!! i have been cleaning, and packing for the past two weeks, so friday really cant come soon enough!
  2. Amy, and the fact that her tumor was not cancer, and that the scare is really little, and looks like a smily face on her neck… her words not mine ha!
  3. the olympics, i love them, i wish i could swim like these men and women… or are they dolphins?
  4. my friends and family who have so graciously helped (or should i say “have been forced”) me move out of my small hell hole!
  5. paint, i am so excited to paint my room in the new house that i could just burst, i am just so sick of bare walls
  6. Jessica, and the fact that she lives in NY, and the fact that i will very soon be going to see her!!! YAY!
  7. the fact that i work at a job were there is an endless amount of vacant boxes… this makes moving a dream!
