Hello Kitty!

Yes it's true. I'm now the proud owner of a humidifier in the shape of Hello Kitty. The cool steam comes outta of her cute little ears. Why did I buy such a junvenile accessory for my boudoir? Well, it was either that, a penguin or a frog at Target- that's why silly.

I've noticed that my new place is quite, well dry. Not uncommon at all for connected housing units such as much. That plus the windows are too old to open so what happens in my space, stays there until I open my porch door. Example, I made dinner the other night that was quite aromatic to put it lightly. I had the a/c on so I couldn't open the door. So I covered the smell by lighting a candle in my kitchen.


Other amazing things have been happening at my new place.

1. The clock fell down for the second time in a month and is smashed to bits. I came in the other night and George had beat me there and says as I'm walking in "There's been a casualty". I had NO IDEA what this could mean, other than he hurt himself installing the shelf in my bathroom. Then I saw the broken glass. I liked the clock but only really got it out of necessity not b/c I LOVED it. So when I picked out its replacement last night at Target, I took the time to pick one that worked better and is less like to fall.

2. I (and the rest of my neighbors) had no hot water from Sunday am to Monday night. I didn't really need a hot shower but would've enjoyed it after washing dishes for over an hour after my friends went home. I ended up boiling water on the stove and my plug in kettle to get the dishes done properly.

3. There's paint on the walls (and a bit on the ceiling). I've painted my living room Sherwin Williams' "Springtime" and my boudoir "Swimming". Everything looks so much cleaner but I have grand plans of putting up crown molding some day....

4. Everything is just about unpacked. Only one more carton of china at my parents' house. My front room is now clutter free and the far side of my bedroom is now the stashing place since I can't see over there anyhow and don't sleep in that side of the bed.
