DIY


Thanks to my friend Amy, I've become addicted to the idea of some really cool DIY projects. DIY stands for dot-it-yourself fory those of you who don't know. She invited me to an ottoman fixing/headboard making party this friday, and I think if I can swing it I'll go.


This is definately the old fashioned method of motivation for me. I feel like my mom has hidden a toy on top of the fridge again and I can only have it when I do so many spelling asignment. (I was an abysmal speller as a kid, and very small so the top of the fridge was insurmountable)


Regardless, I'm now determined to make my own awesome ottoman with pillows to match. Something like the one on top, but a little more my style. Next stop- re-staining some dressers...

Mirror Magic

So Luna discovered the mirror the other day. I think she was looking at it (we have a full length mirror on the back of the closet door) when I walked in last night. She recognized me, but got confused enough that she started barking. It was a rare moment.

So she hid behind the real me, and kept peeking around my legs to look at her mirror self, or the mirror me. Then she got real low to the ground and inspected behind the mirror... I thought it was pretty funny.

So although I love dogs, you know they aren't that bright when they don't know what a mirror or a reflection are. My consolation, cats are dumb too and try to fight themselves sometimes.
