Cute comforters = happy me.
I shop when I am sad and stressed out. I guess it's my way of keeping busy so not to think about everything I lost on my mac (personal pictures, clients - I hope to God I do have all my client work saved somewhere, Photoshop, all my grandma's photos that I scanned, old client emails and contact info, oh my goodness, just too much to even think about right now when no matter how much I ponder this and how sick I feel to my stomach, doing so isn't going to change anything at all. . . sigh . . .).
So, I bought things for Maia's room.
I decided to go with a totally neutral comforter. I can't decide. The more I look the more options I have and the more undecisive and confused I get. So I went with this at Linensource: It's kinda grandma-ish, but I just see a lot of possibilities and I can change throw pillows out and match anything to it, like cute sheet sets, the rug, and all the throw pillows I already have for her room. Plus, it's long so I don't have to get a bedskirt! And I LOVE CHENILLE!
And then, because I really love the kukunest things so much, I wanted to buy a throw pillow, which they don't have, so I bought this instead:I think I'll make a collage on her wall above her bed of prints, photographs and some of the old artwork I have that once hung in my bedroom as a little girl.
For Noah, I just ordered a comforter cover for him (I'll get the down comforter and bedskirt later). After he said he wanted dinosaurs, he then said he wanted pirates and then today he said trucks. So I'm stopping at trucks and trucks is what he gets. It's so cute and just went on sale. I got such a good deal! I love Garnet Hill!
So, yep, that's all I did all day long. Absolutely nothing (I deserve days like that, right?). And, okay, I also spent money on the internet, but well worth it, don't you think?
I do feel a tiny bit better but once I get my credit card bill I know that will change. Oh well. In the meantime, I sit here and enjoy my glass of wine and try to forget all that I lost on my computer . . . for the moment. Tomorrow is another day.
I get my computer back Monday. Then it's back to reinstalling Photoshop and everything else that I need in order to work. I'm not ready to take that on right now on top of packing and making moving decisions. So, instead, I might go get another glass of wine :c)
