Friday May 1, 2015 This and That

Today is the last day of my Vacation, and I go back to work on Monday.  The time off has been wonderful and valuable. Today will be spent tidying my room and doing laundry, and I bought some potting soil yesterday so I need to re-pot a few plants.

I don't know what to call my room. Adam has his room which is his office/man cave.  My room, although I have my desk and laptop, doesn't feel like, nor do I want to call it my office.  We wanted to buy a nice reading chair but opted for a single bed.  Good choice as it is comfortable.  If I prop myself up in the corner it is a comfy reading place.  If I lay down, I fall asleep. Instantly.  I want a storage/bookshelf unit to replace my dresser. The dresser isn't working well for storage of my art supplies and crafty bits which is resulting in a bit too much clutter.  I want everything out of sight, neatly in its own place, and easily accessible.  After that, maybe replace my 15yr old RCA with a nice flat screen I can attach to the wall, and make some noise reducing curtains (as my windows face the busy street).  These of course are wants, not needs so the timeline is .... whenever :)  I guess my room is my sanctuary.  My little place I can just be.

I went out yesterday to pick up a few things and I purchased a new memory card for my camera as I used to see things differently when I carried my camera. I'm looking forward to getting outside more and seeing the little things Spring has to offer.

I also bought myself a new Pictura Panoramic Fold Out Coloring Book - A Stroll In London.  I'm looking forward to coloring it. Perfect stress reducing and relaxing activity.
