Kitchen Chairs Part 2
So my kitchen chairs are definitely made over. As you might remember what they looked like before (very plain). But now they are perfect. They are going to be a great contrast to my plain white walls. I'm getting more and more giddy!! Today I had to call the electric company, it felt weird. Oh yeah, my car is finally in better shape. Brand New Window, its great. My car runs so much smoothly. And tomorrow I gotta go and get an oil change(first time i have ever had to do it, usually someone else will do it for me). I guess there is a first time for everything. Well thats all I got for this post. So enjoy my kitchen chairs.

Can't wait to see them in my apartment. 3 days left!! I can't wait any longer!!

Noodles, Noodles and More Noodles
I recently received a recipe book, called 101 Things To Do With Ramen Noodles by Toni Patrick. Which has some really great ideas of sprucing up the regular noodles. So probably from time to time I will be cooking from this 120 page recipe book. And since I will not have a Noodles & Company near me, it's the best I can do. But I just thought this had some really good recipes. So I think I will share some. So Enjoy!!

Kitchen Chairs
So tonight, I decided that I was bored. And I needed to stir up some kind of action. Basically the only thing that I could think of, was doing the dishes. Its a pretty easy job to do, put the dishes in the dish washer, and some need to be washed by hand. But I couldn't believe that I was doing the dishes even if I was bored. But I did them, and it helped the boredom. But now, boredom has knocked on my door once again. So when I put my dog outside, I took some pictures of my kitchen chairs for my apartment.
The chairs have been sanded down, and now ready to be painted, and if I have time, I will try to put the finished makeover of the chairs on here. But I will tell you that the paint is a kind of chocolate brown color.

It's a beautiful day!!
The weather is finally warmer. But I think I remember being told that it would be cold with snow by tomorrow. So today is going to be taking a full advantage of the beautiful day. I would try to convey all my sentiments for today, but it would just take me all day, to try and fit that into this. Besides I don't want to bore you to the max. So here goes a small tribute for this post. Finally, some of the pressure that I have been under lately, has poked a tiny hole and is releasing itself in a timely manner. I have about 4 or 5 days left and Im getting giddy. Anyways, this post will be a short one, so that I can enjoy the beautiful weather we have today. TTFN!!
