Just More Plans!

I need a room, and a living room. So, here it goes!

SOFA! This is really the only piece I need and it matches the shit I already have. We're doing a magnolia theme. The coffee table and the end table I have already match this. They're about the same color as the dark brown. And a magnolia is about shade as the ivory color. I already have a painting that will go over it. I might need a television stand and a couple of chairs. I might be able to get away with one. I also might need a new rug? I don't even know what kind of floors I'll have, obviously, as I don't have a place picked. Anyway, this sofa is from Rooms To Go. It's price is about $4oo and it is called the Wesley sofa. I might just go ahead and get a love seat and a chair instead of two chairs. I really like the Wesley Lovesea. It's a smaller version of this sofa. It costs about $380. And I guess I'll have to get a chair that looks the same? Can I do that? I mean, sorry, you weren't in my head. I mean, can I mix and match furniture colors? Idunno. Never seen it done. That'd be new. LOL. They'd call the style "Simply Susan". Har. "Oh. I see you have a "Simply Susan" style den. Neat." And actally I was wondering. Do I really want a sofa and a loveseat or do I want a loveseat and a chaise. Or what? Or do I wan a recliner or a chair chair. Or do I want one of each and not a loveseat? So many decisions. So, I'll post all of my picks, do the calculations and then decide. Just planning anyway. Nothing is FINAL! So, this is the recliner/rocker I'd get. It definitely doesn't match absolutely, but I figure it's close enough. This is about $600, which is more than the couch! And it is a Lynley Hazelnut Rocker Recliner. Or I can get this one. This is the Francis Beige Recliner. It costs $450. While it only has one color, the color definitely matches better. And here's a wild chair! It's the Gregory Swivel Chair. Now, on this one, the dark brown doesn't match absolutely, but the ivory does. Interesting, no? Anyway, it costs about $650 and would probably have me wanting to strangle my little darlings. You know how they like to spin chairs. Oh. By the by, there IS a Wesley Chair. It's $350. I'm thinking I might just SKIP the chaise thing. They're OOGLY! I'm really kinda disapointed that they don't have a Wesley Ottoman. But who needs an ottoman anyway? This is about need not want!

Next we come to entertainment centers. I don't need a whole lot. Just something to keep the kids out of the DVDS and stuff and it has to hold the television up. Just something basic in other words. And THIS is NOT what I'm talking about. The Santa Cruz Wall Unit is NOT what I mean. It's nice. But no. I need something more along the lines of The Morton Console for $450. That's what I REALLY need.

It's Fun To Plan

This is strictly rough plans for the new house which we don't even have yet. Haha.

IF they each have their own room here are the plans:

Jayde:

-gets the quilt rack
-gets Todd's nightstand and new lamp
















Camryn:

Susan:
-gets a new dresser
-gets a new nightstand and lamp
-Asian themed
- same color it is now (dark teal)
-gets new dresser
-gets new bed (double/prince)
-takes one of the dress up trunks

IF there is only one room for the girls they want the following:

-a bunk bed (comes with drawers and a desk- each will get three drawers, Camy will use the desk, will each still have their own lamp)
- Tinkerbell/fairy/pixie and horse/my little pony theme integrated
-pink and purple walls with an armchair railing
- Still get my dressers
-cradle and dolls
-keep ALL the dressup trunks
-I get the cedar chest
-Mamaw keeps the quilt rack
-extra twin bed becomes a "nanny bed".

13 Days

13 days until my beheading ceremony. Haha.

Not having a good day today.

I'm really tired of the mental beat down I keep getting. From my grandmother. Really? Are you serious? You love me the most my foot. I'm the only one of your grandchildren you do this to. Be a grandmother for God sake. You don't have to be the one to burst my bubble all the time. You don't have to be my reality check. I know what the reality of the situation is. I don't need that. Just be happy for me when I'm happy, sad for me when I'm sad, and encourage me when I'm anxious. Why can't you? No, you have to lay on the guilt and act like you can't trust me. WTF? I'm not the one you have a problem with. I am not a liar. I never have been. That's the way I was brought up. And you know that. So quit acting like you don't. It's annoying. And you aren't stupid. So quit pulling that too. You're more alert than any grandmother I know. Get over it. You aren't dying tomorrow. Sorry. You aren't. You're in too good a shape. Maybe you shouldn't have taken such good care of yourself. God forbid you outlive your mother. Your mother had LUNG CANCER. She smoked. And wouldn't stop. You did. Okay? Yes. Living happens when you take care of yourself. And really, when you act like a grandmother, I am really glad you did that. I am. It's just when you stomp around and act like I'm a horrible person that I wish you would die. I'm hard enough on myself. Why can't you just support me? I'm supposed to be my worst critic, not you. Geez.

Sorry. Had to get that out. This is what happens when you live with your grandmother. Not love. Not unconditional love anyway. You get betterment tips. You get guilt. You get treated like you're a moron. Fuck you if you think I'm the favorite! I'm not. Let her live with you for a while. Let's see how favorite you think I am then. Maybe you'll get some of the crap I've had to put up with for years. See if you put THAT title on me still. See if you like being pressured all the time by someone who isn't yourself. See if you like being told how you're doing it all wrong. See if you like being told what a liar you are. And how you can't be trusted. See how good that feels. So yeah. If favorite means most criticized then, yes, that's me. Go to hell!

Obviously I wasn't done...

But now I am

snip, snap, snout,
this blog's told out!
