craigslist, first day of new school

I am selling a number of pieces of furniture on craigslist, and searching on craigslist for an ottoman for our living room.   From the woman who sent me seventeen emails about my dresser only to huffily say OH, NEVERMIND, to the four people who have emailed to ask if I will take $20 for a dresser listed for $100, to the guy who said "its none of your business if I have pets" (I asked if his ottoman has been in a home with pets since my son has severe allergies), craigslist brings out the best in people.

Greg's first day at his new school was Monday.  I took some "first day of school" pictures (which may remind you of a few previous years "first day" pictures, as you can see here, and here).  Greg is not all that fond of the camera.

His first two days seemed to go pretty well.  He is going to a year-round school, so he only has one week of school before he goes on a three week break.

The Mister and I often refer to the children's more destructive antics as "Hulk SMASH!!!!"  I came across these Hulk fists in Target and they made me laugh.  The kids want to play with them SO BAD.

first day of school, for me this time

I saw one of those inspirational sayings on Pinterest that the work you do when you are procrastinating is probably the work you should be doing for real.

I spend a fair amount of time reading design blogs, design books, and decorating my house.

Today was my first day of school at Parsons' interior design certificate course.

It was fun :-)

Forgive me if posting is a little light in the next few weeks while I get settled.

I linked up my console post to Abode Love's link party.  There's some fun stuff over there, go check it out! I hope I can get some more posts of my dining room up in time for the next party.
