I Hate Gutters

It's not so much the actual gutter that I hate. I don't hate the look and they really are handy to have I suppose. I just hate the fact that everyone wants them due to the good economy and alot of construction. I hate that my husband works ALL the time installing said gutters on houses. I hate that I never know when he is going to come home and can never plan anything. I hate that when he comes home at night all he wants to talk about is gutters.

Don't get me wrong, I am very happy that he loves his job, but seriously, how can a stupid aluminum scrap be more important than the person you love?!!!!

A Worldly Home

Our bedroom. The most boring room in our house. It has a nice bed but no bed frame. REALLY old dressers that do not match. And there are no pictures on the wall. SO we decided to paint it. And that is what happened two weeks ago. Ian and I painted our bedroom Roasted Pepper.
Then we proceeded to find fabric to make curtains. Ian was not very happy about this venture but I made him go with me and in return he could go to the HOME DEPOT. We went to WalMart and Ian was the one who found very cool fabric. It is red and white with black japanese type flowers on it. As a result of the fabric, we decided to make our bedroom Japanese style as well. I am going to paint canvases with japanese writing. Words like love, happyness, etc. Ian is going to make a bed frame that is low the ground, square, and black. Our furniture doesn't match, so we're going to paint it, black.

So that will be our bedroom. For our living room, I am trying to go for an African theme. Ian got an African drum from Phil and Beka for Christmas and I went to centre the decore around that.

For my kitchen, I'm going for more of a french style. French cafe style most likely.

Our office has a nice Southern British Columbian theme. Nice blue walls. A desk with a computer. A fish tank. A painting of a schooner. A model schooner. Ahhhh yes. Good old Southern British Columbia.

Anyhow, that is all I can really think of now for decorating. This is my way of seeing the world without having to leave the comfort of my own home. I need to try get a Venice themed room. As long as it is not the basement.
