I’m Still Standing!

February 21, 2012

Wow. This has been the longest break between blog posts I’ve had in the history of this blog. Should be an indication of how crazy life is right now. Just lots of things going on and no time to update. Things should calm down soon.

My last day in the office was Friday, and since then, I’ve thrown myself into overhauling my home office. It’s been a crazy amount of work, and I’m someone who can’t stop something and admit defeat. Throughout buckets of paint, sanding furniture, stenciling, and spray painting half of my office furniture, I’ve worn myself out. No rest or relaxation, just paint fumes and headaches.

Here is my perfectly imperfect new feature wall:

I’m ridiculously impatient sometimes, and this wall tested every ounce of patience I had. I’m happy with the end result though.

Thursday morning, my partner-in-crime (and half-marathon buddy and accountant) Holli and I are heading to Nashville for Blissdom, a blogging conference. I’m excited, but haven’t had two seconds to really think about it in the midst of wrapping up work and then nose-diving into a redecorating frenzy. Hoping I can wrap the project up tomorrow and get back to business!

Hope everyone is well. xoxo

    Home office? I’m jealous. I DREAM of the day when I can work from home.

    I love what you did to that wall!  The color is really warm, yet soothing, too.  That’s going to be a great home office. 

    Have fun at Blissdom!
