I’m moving. AH! I’m lucky I still have a functioning blog after this week of painting. I currently have stains on the crack of skin between nostril and nose neck, thighs, finger nails, splatter spots across my feet. It’s a bit wild here. Let the photos commence:
Day 199:
Splish Splash, I was takin’ a bath!
When my mother isn’t singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow to my nephew before bed, we’re thinking up bath songs that she used to sing to me. He’s adorable, but he’s known to act obscene in public places and then get snotty sick afterwards.
Day 200: (Holy-wow, Day 200)
Adult Dr. Suess
Who says you have to grow big and stop eating green eggs and hearing little songs coming from dandelions? WHO SAYS. This is my classroom map of all the places we’ll go in our readings. Hooray, 9th graders!
Day 201:
Submissions
I will give gold stars to writers who use stamps with writerly faces. Who knew Geraldine Brooks could look so witty through the post.
Day 202:
Tommy thought this was a penis.
I thought it was a woolly mammoth. We spent a summer living in the same room with ten kids. I threw a water bottle at his head. Don’t worry, there was hugging and making-up-ing.
Day 203:
Fajerina
See that pink scar, he got it fighting bison with his bare knee. He also bought me that couch for my new house! (Excuse me while I squeal: I have the best daddy ever).
Day 204:
Simple Rain
Sometimes when your head is overwhelmed, you just have to peek out into the darkness and notice the color of rain.
Day 205:
How to Decorate a House 101
Begin with the bookshelves.

Hi Cassie! Moving is such an adventure (so is a root canal:<) A new job and new home within weeks? That's tough! Good luck!

Yea, it’s a bit overwhelming but still really exciting. WAY MORE EXCITING than a root canal – blehhhhh. And thank you!

You have indeed been busy. I don’t mind painting but I dislike all the preparation, which is a headache. Like all your photos.

There is definitely a lot of newspaper and blue tape involved. Luckily, there’s no furniture in my house yet so I can paint without moving everything out. And thank you!

What a great way to document the week! Your new couch is awesome, and I love the bookshelves too :)
July 22nd, 2012 at 3:45 pm
Thank you so much! My dad sat on it for a good hour while we waited for all the paperwork – so I think it will be comfortable!
I’m still working on the bookshelves, but it’s the first thing I always decorate. : )

Congrats on the new journey! The house looks sooo lovely. I’m with you…I always organize my bookshelves before anything else ~

It’s just easier once that’s done to know you’ll be safe and comfortable in a house. : ) And thank you lovely!

Exciting! How far are you moving :)
July 23rd, 2012 at 11:18 pm
Only two hours. : ) Not too far! I will write it all out in my letter.

I nominated you for a Liebster Award!
