That Settles IT!!!!!! June 5, 2007

Filed under: Uncategorized — cottagecharm @ 8:06 pm

That lost post just settled it for me! I am moving back to blogger, but with a whole new name as cottage charm was taken.

WordPress would not let me download a photo unless I had it saved into a photo program and that is really annoying. I like the ease of blogger cause it lets you download from your computer.

Oh well. Sorry about all the changing and stuff. I just want to protect my privacy. I will post the new URL once I have it set up. Thanks for sticking in there with me!

 

Decisions, Decisions

I don’t know if I like WordPress just yet. I have been using it, but it just isn’t doing it for me. I can’t really change the background to what I want like I could with blogger. (wordpress charges a yearly fee) I don’t really care for the font size, but I can’t change it. (or at lest I don’t know how)

I am still working on this blog. It is a work in progress.

What things would you like to see on my blog?

Menu Planning Help

Filed under: Uncategorized — cottagecharm @ 12:29 pm

Hubby and I have decided to eat at home more. This means that I need to put together a menu plan of sorts. I would like to have 2 weeks worth of menus planned so that when I go shopping, I will have 2 weeks worth of food in the pantry.

My question is this: How do you guys do it? Do you have any tips or tricks for me?

Tonight June 1, 2007

Filed under: Uncategorized — cottagecharm @ 2:32 pm

I am going to be all alone tonight. Well, all alone with Sophie (my cat), (It will be a girls night. LOL) Hubby is going out of town on an overnight fishing trip.

I am planning on cleaning the house tonight and then watching “Roman Holiday” with Audrey Hepburn. I just adore her movies!

Saturday will find me pulling out my bicycle and going to the library. Then I am planning on cleaning out our storage closet and finding things to eBay or list on Craig’s list. So I will be doing that in the afternoon.

And if he isn’t back home until late Saturday, I have also rented “The Lake House” with Sandra Bullock & Keanu Reeves. Should be a good time.

Our Office – Redoing June 9, 2006

Filed under: Uncategorized — cottagecharm @ 6:24 pm

Well, it’s official. My hubby wants to turn the room into a music room. You can see the before photos here.
We will be keeping the keyboard and the bass guitar. We just purchased an amp for the guitar and it will be here Tuesday. The piano chords poster will be staying and I need to find a bass guitar chords poster. I am going to frame them in those poster frames.

We will be taking out the desk, desk chair, bookcases, chairs, table and the sewing machine. We are looking for a futon and a coffee table to fill the space. Eventually my hubby would like to purchase an electric drum set. (that will be a few years away cause we need to save up for that purchase. The one he wants is about $5,000. Ouch)

He is wanting to keep the walls green. I am unsure of this color though. He is thinking the color scheme will be green, black and white. I am thinking the walls would look better tan. Let me know what you think.
