The decorating and William Morris to-do list

I had a lovely weekend that was somewhat marred by tweaking my back YET AGAIN on Saturday night.  Sunday was spent not at the Rose Bowl Flea Market as planned, but doped up on muscle relaxers on a lawn chair in the driveway (klassy!), overseeing the Mister cleaning the garage.  I also attempted to spraypaint some picture frames, but apparently you shouldn't handle glass while on muscle relaxers, because you will end up needing band-aids and a new picture frame.  No worries, the Mister made me go sit on the couch after that.

In other exciting news, though, I found some really cheap tickets to NJ while I was laid up on the couch, so the kids and I have something to look forward to.

Since I have been summarily estopped from doing projects, I've been making up a list of what needs to be done around here, both decorator-wise and William Morris style.

I know this is not the most scintillating post, plus I can tell you that I am still doped up and thus anything I have written thus far or after may not be coherent, so feel free to check back tomorrow, when I hope to have a moodboard for my sister's nursery up.  Or not. Depends on how well the drugs work.
