My Husband Is Better Than Your Husband

Here she is... my spankin' new rocking chair!


Complete with loving inscription from the husband (it's an early anniversary gift).

It will be six years this November... and they said it wouldn't last! Scott also moved my stash into the living room, where it is now much more accessible. Hopefully, seeing it all the time will also provide some motivation. That blank spot on the wall above the yarn is where he made room for some sort of crafty picture. Perhaps a knitting related painting? I'm sure I can find something.

That's little Spencer at the bottom, saying hello. And look- the baskets on top are filled with yarn too! The one on the right is all sock yarn.

I'm thinking of naming the chair, but what? I'll have to think of something clever.

Yesterday, we also got rid of the desk we were using as an entertainment system- it was big and ugly and we hated it. Then Scott spotted a bookshelf at World Market that was the perfect size, so now our TV is on something that actually resembles a piece of furniture.

Our goal is to slowly turn our home into what we actually want it to be. Up until recently, we were decorating the way we thought normal people should. Turns out neither of us is very normal, and we hated most of our stuff. Who knew? Now we are replacing things one by one, which will take some time, but that's okay... we are patient.
