Furniture Shopping......again!

Aaarrhh! So the person that I tried to buy the bed that I posted previously about had already sold it. So I thought I would just get on Ikea website to buy the same bed. The bed was $170.......and shipping was about $250.......You have to be freaking kidding me! So that is a no go. So we went back out to my favorite stores (hint of sarcasm there) and Nothing! So Cal has decided he is going to try and make the bed. You have got to love the internet. I swear you can find anything that you want to make. So I'll let you know how that goes.

Not much else going on this weekend. Cal had a crazy weekend with work issues. All the guys in his brigade are at NTC (National Training Center) in Ft. Irwin, CA. With the wife issues we dealth with this weekend, I am so afraid for this upcoming deployment. I swear, I do not know what goes through these wive's minds. If they are freaking at right now wen their husbands are only gone one month, I can't imagine what they are going to do when they are gone 12 months. Only time will tell.

Well here are some projects I have been working on this week.

Here is a pic that I painted for Alexis' "new" room. I am doing a cute girly hawaiian theme. Mainly becuase I have this beautiful quilt my aunt made for me and I want that to be one of the highlights in the room. I have been looking at Hawaiian decor, and they are so expensive. This sign cost me $1.50 to make. Well I just had to buy the board, I already had all the paint. I am doing about 6 pictures like this, hanging ribbon off the top and doing a collage type wall piece.

Also, here is a pic of my homemade swiffer duster. This one actaully goes onto the Endust brand dusters. Easy to make and works great.
