I like making things beautiful.
So the other day I was scheming with a friend about building a cool headboard... yes building... and from there I started thinking about paint and furniture and pictures and all the trappings of a fun room.
Side note:
I have never had a room
that is all the way finished.
It is my dream.
Someday.
But for now,
in this "starting out" phase of life,
I always run out of money
and energy
and time
before all my dreams are realized.
Mostly I run out of money.
But I still hold hope that
one day I will have a beautiful
finished
HGTV worth
room.
As my mother would say,
"Go on dreaming dear, it is good for the soul."
Anyhow, on Sunday (my brainstorming all happened on Saturday night) morning Andy and I were sitting on the bed talking while Jack roamed the house.
I started talking about all the projects I had been thinking about, "... and we could build a new headboard like they have on HGTV, it wouldn't be hard, and then we could paint the walls and hang up those pictures we have and we could get new bedding and ta da! we'll have a new room!!"
Pause.
Andy says, "Do you have a mouse in your pocket or something?"
Huh?
I don't get it.
I say, "I don't understand."
He smirks and says, "You keep saying 'we.'"
Ha ha. Clever honey.
I say, "Oh yeah. Excuse me. I will build a headboard, I will paint, I will shop for new bedding. You will hang pictures and you will pay for it all."
Now before you go all up in arms on my behalf, I knew Andy was teasing. Well, not teasing exactly because that really is how it will work out, but I am okay with that.
Especially the part where I don't have to make the money. Hooray for a honey who works hard and cheers me on for being an at-home mum!
And who indulges me decor dreams.
Even if they never get finished.
Someday the will.
Someday.
And in the event that you
are wondering about the use of
someday
vs.
some day
either is acceptable.
I looked it up.
