Hello, Adulthood!

There are a few things that I would consider milestones in the whole entering into adulthood thing. Marriage is one of them. Paying all of my own bills is another. My next big step will be happening in just a few days...buying big girl furniture!

My days of dorm room decor are officially over, and I couldn't be happier. I am so excited about my project of furnishing our new apartment, it's a little ridiculous. I made a list of all the things we need (ahem, I want) and made a whole budget and everything. It's a bummer Shane isn't here to pick out things with me, but I much rather have a place all set up for him to come home to than not. Needless to say, he trusts my taste and has left all of the decisions to me. And why shouldn't he? I'm a classy lady.

The big move will begin in two weeks, so I decided it was about time I started to actually look for things. In my first hour of searching (first online and then booked it to the store to see the set in real life), I am pretty sure I have a 5-piece living room picked out! Here is a picture of the couch. I am open to opinions!


The sweet part is the price. I managed to find a 5-piece set for far less than I was even budgeting. Hooray! (In my head that means more money to put toward clothes...) I will hopefully put in my order in a few days. Just need Shane to look and give him a chance to object :-P

Now I just have some bedroom furniture, bar stools, and other random crap to worry about, but I've got time.

I can't decide if it's allergies or an actual cold that's been getting the best of me, but sleep seems like the best option right now. Ready to get through another week- so happy it will be a short one thanks to Turkey Day!
