I'm always trying new stuff whether its a new store, restaurant, service, book, vacation spot, website etc and I like to write/rave on it. I'm also random and go on random rants about things that i think are funny, annoying, or that excite me. Welcome to my collection of random thoughts :)

the cliffnotes version

Well... i TECHNICALLY could have a lot to write about since my life has been a million miles a minute and i could easily have a handful of blogs documenting ALL  of those things but why not sum it up for a change instead of the typical Emily rambling on and on......

MOVING- i moved from midtown to the heights area and boy do i LOVE  the heights!  such a cute area.  i feel much safer and we love our apartment.... so does the dog!  it just took forever to get out of one apartment into the other and rid of the place.  i guess thats what happens when you find a good deal you do what you gotta do!   i had my walk through of my old place yesterday.  bittersweet, but boy am i happy!  my new place has the biggest most modern kitchen, a washer and dryer ( boy did i take that for granted in college), a walk in closet (took that for granted too!) and a massive bathroom ( yep it too).  vintage apartment life was fun and it was cute but man is the new place 1000x better!

CRAIGSLIST-  i have a love hate with craigslist.  I love that i made $2000 selling my stuff to buy all new stuff, but i hate the hassle of reposting things over and over.  i did it for over a month.  had numerous garage sales where 20 ppl tell me they are coming and don't show.  People try and haggle to basically GIVE  your stuff away.  ugh such a pain in my butt.  finally last thursday a single mom of 3 came by with her boys and went through all i had and gave me $50 for what was left.  Had i sold the things she took at the garage sales like people had requested those items. it would have been HUNDREDS  of dollars!  she took everything basically, but it was just going to be donated the next day so better than nothing and we helped her out.

NCIDQ- i took my interior design license exams a few weeks back.  hardest thing i've ever taken.  i have to wait 14 weeks before i know!  argh!!!!!!!!

FURNITURE SHOPPING- we have done some massive furniture shopping for our new place.  it has been hard and time consuming finding things i like.  then when we do,we have the biggest issue with customer service, delivery people.  ugh its been a hassle.   our bedroom set was to be delivered last night and well long story but it didnt.  i was a fan of highfashion home store before.... not so much anymore.

MY MOM MOVED BACK- yep thats right she moved back to a cute new house on the other side of town so now we get to do girl stuff a lot.  sadly enough, her dog died right before she moved :(  the whole family has been pretty torn up about it.  i cannot even imagine if something happened to my puppy.  oh how we fall in love with our pets!

well i got more going on but thats the big things.  i'm really just losing my desire and the time to blog.... anybody else have that problem????
