Studio reorganization/clean up video
I'm busy trying to get my studio in working order again....haven't made it back to Ikea yet to exchange the defective pieces of my new worktable, but I got this cool little commercial duty wire rack at Target yesterday for $40. Thought I'd film little snippets every so often to give y'all a peek at what I'm up to today. :D This was all filmed on my birthday present....a replacement for my old 1st generation iPhone....the new 3G S which has video. Yippee!!! I soooooo love it!

Library time! (and a mini update)
We've been making lots of trips to the library this summer. Aiden's abook nut like his momma. ;) He's reading chapter books (and he's not even six yet...wow!) and his most favorite series is Captain Underpants. Now, I'm not the one who introduced him to this series...that was all one of his teachers from kindergarten. Lol! They discourage them from using "potty" words in the classroom, but they have books like these around. *shakes head* That one, I just don't get.
Now don't get me wrong, the books are pretty funny...but when you've got a kid who goes around just saying "Captain Underpants" loudly every where he goes....Target, the dentist office, restaurants...well, you get the picture. And he has to tell every one he meets, both kids and adults, about his favorite character. Thankfully, about 70% have heard of the books...but that other 30% look at us like we've lost our minds. Lol!
Now a quick kitchen update...nope, we're not done yet and don't know how much longer it's gonna be. There's some things going on that we have no control over and we're just having to wait. Let's just say, we're beyond frustrated and leave it at that.
Also, I'm trying to get caught up on emails, but the backlog is quite big. So, if you've emailed me in the past few months and haven't heard from me yet, please email me again. Your message most likely got lost somewhere in my inbox.
I'm also trying to clean up and reorganize my studio so I can get back to work, but I've hit a snag on that as well. Good old Ikea and their lack of quality control strikes again. Oh well, hopefully l'll be able to get it all sorted out soon...and before I completely lose my mind. :D
update & peek at kitchen
at least i was able to cook corndogs and mac & cheese last night. LOL!but still so much left to do....tile the backsplash and find a few more cabinet doors that match our current lot (our original order was filled from three different factories...therefore, three different colors...don't know what they were thinkin'). and hubby let me know that we need to install our new cabinets in the laundry room before the 90 day return period expires, which is in about 3 weeks. seems this is not even close to over yet. oh well.....i'm determined to get the kitchen complete so we can stop living amongst boxes and free up my studio (and brain) so i can paint something...anything!! before i lose the thread of sanity i have left. LOL!
