C: Weekend Sentences

It’s the beginning of the weekend which means I’m that much closer to seeing J and L again!

Just a few more days.

The Cavern is repainted completely, and I’m just letting it dry and cure and what not before moving in our loads upon loads of things.

Goal: Somehow use fewer shelves in our room so that we don’t block the minimal natural lighting. {crossing my fingers}

I’m sitting in L’s office chair right now. Therefore, I took a picture. I thought it necessary.

 

 

 

I found these treasures:

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Sister #4 , for the lovely picture. You were  are always good with those!


C: First Breakfast

I’m awake. Earlier than usual. And I can tell when I wake up earlier than what I’m used to because I’m more hungry — strange? Maybe. But it’s an excuse to eat homemade bread with jam and a homemade granola bar accompanied with coffee. YUM.

At 5:30 I said my goodbyes to J and L as they make their way to Honduras for one week. [they're pretty excited]

One week can bring a lot of change, and that’s what I’m hoping to do with the Cavern.

I know I know! Changing the Cavern?!” 

It’s true — It is about that time.

 

Although the Cavern has treated us well, it’s time for a new look.

 

I’ve got paint sitting on the floor waiting to be used.

 

I’ve already emptied the room quite a bit even while we were still living in it — cause I’m pretty sure you don’t need artwork hanging on the walls in order to fall asleep. {HELLO!}

 

Little Brother has a little “nook” in his room that he doesn’t use. It’s the perfect space to store a lot of our things — Win.

 

I think we’ve told you about the “Post-It” wall, right?

 

Well, it had to come down.

 

7 categories for 7 days.

 

Lots of silly notes that don’t make sense and pictures that would never pass as real art.

 

And of course we enjoyed some time in the Cavern with J — She’s home for good!

 

 

I’ll be posting again when this new look is done (I’m crossing my fingers!).

New paint, some de-cluttering, and lets hope L likes it when she gets home!


L: Slept Through My Alarm… AGAIN!

Guess what I did this morning?

I committed a serious crime: no shower. *gasp* Can you believe it? I hardly can.

My methods of semi-masking my lack of shower have changed. Now my hair is long enough to put up quite easily. Strange, right? I feel like my hair was short just yesterday.

That’s all for now, y’alls.


Highlight

The girls did many many things over the weekend — although half of those “things” are mostly chores and such… (Not so thrilling).

 

But yesterday afternoon, when both L and C were completely exhausted, they found Niece #4 extremely hilarious.

 


C: Thursday Night Rambles

Today, peach Chobani yogurt appeared in our fridge. (heaven!)

It seriously is one of my favorites.

 

(gotta love the whole “taken with a webcam so the letters are backwards deal” — oh joy)

I know now who got the yogurt, which ruins the excitement of having your favorite yogurt mysteriously appear in your refrigerator, but nonetheless it is still good.

 

Tonight L came home and arrived in the Cavern with some strawberries in hand, so we sat in bed enjoying the delicious fruit.

 

(confession… i love us)

 

For some reason we have a banjo in our house. I don’t know why. But who cares how it got here, I just take every chance I get to take it out of its case and pluck a few good ‘ole banjo strings!

 

 

(again — webcam backwards deal. gah!)

And even though I am far from any professional status when it comes to banjo playing, it makes me quite content just being able to play a few easy chords. LOVE.

I mean, seriously — I’m able to play Keith Urban and Josh Turner on the banjo! What more could I need?!

(that was a rhetorical question…)
